Shawn and co-hosts Nika and Clement continue their discussion of ableism from last week and talk about their own personal experiences with it. They discuss their internalized ableism and how it can affect their own behaviors, as well as concepts such as “inspiration porn” and how it can be damaging to how disability is viewed in the mainstream.
