Roughly 6.2 million Canadians – or 25% of the population – live with some form of disability, but that high number hasn’t led to an accessible society. In the film and television industry, countless barriers exist for people with disabilities that simply don’t exist for people without them. In the first of our new series of episodes about disability and accessibility in #BCFilm, actor and advocate Amy Amantea joins Sabrina Rani Furminger to discuss the challenges faced by film workers with disabilities, the damage done by tropes and thoughtless language, attitudinal barriers, and what can be done to make the industry accessible for all.
