Episode 14b – Art, Activism, and Disability with Lector Morales

Writing Alchemy Episode 14b Summary

Today’s discussion with hesitant art activist Lector Josue Morales focuses on the topics of art and activism and how they intersect with disability, community, and race. In this conversation we challenge ourselves to expand our ideas about what activism is so that we can fully value the diverse kinds of activism that people are doing.

Guest: Hesitant art activist Lector Josue Morales
