It's an unwanted tradition for this podcast to have an annual critique on the state of whitewashing in audio description.  Moving forward: * We'll continue to call out those involved; companies, narrators... * We'll amplify those making equitable access. * We will bring about change, with or without you! #TimesUp Subscribe/follow wherever you get podcasts.  FB & IG: @ReidMyMindRadio  Twitter: @tsreid  Transcripts & more: www.reidmymind.com

In this last episode of the Art of Adjustment (AOA) season, I'm exploring tribe and trust. Two themes that stood out to me in the last episode, featuring Andres Jay Molina.
