Quotes from the episode

We all have disability at one time or another, maybe just not right now.

-Stephanie Cawthon

I think that there is still a sense of surprise when a request is made for some kind of modification.

-Stephanie Cawthon

This idea that accommodations and accessibility is coming at some cost to the abled is a false pretense.

-Stephanie Cawthon

If you receive a whole bunch of feedback and you can’t do anything about it, that just makes you feel bad.

-Stephanie Cawthon

I was really trying to help us understand our assumptions about disability and accessibility.

-Stephanie Cawthon
