268. First Responders and Teacher of Patience: A Lesson in Understanding


Listen Later

We’re thrilled to have Carmen Vincent and Tom and Tina Felter join us to discuss their powerful Emmy award-winning documentary, Teacher of Patience. This film showcases the incredible journey of the Felter family and their daughter, Emily (who makes a surprise appearance!), who has Down syndrome. Tom shares the story behind developing The Emily Talk, a crucial presentation aimed at educating first responders about disabilities to prevent unnecessary tragedies, and how it led to meeting Carmen. We’re chatting about the process of making a documentary, their hopes for the film, and how it can impact the broader conversation of disability and inclusion. Stay tuned as we explore how this inspiring story is making an impact. This is another episode you don’t want to miss, friends!
