In this latest episode I continue with my self-portrait. My conversation with Andrew Leland led me to consider, what exactly makes someone a disabled artist? This raised other topics including identity, ableism and the impact on my family. So I invited my daughters, Riana and Raven to join me. Which automatically makes it one of my favorites to produce!

In this continuous self-portrait episode, I'm exploring aspects of my own adjustment to becoming Blind. Reflecting back on my early days, I realized I didn't have much of a chance of retreating inward. I was a little annoyed about that at first. But my special guest helps me understand.

Just in time to close out 2023, the band is back together!

We're continuing our live series "Blind Centered Audio Description" with a conversation on Allyship.

Plenty of people claim to be allies, but how many of us actually know what true allyship is supposed to look like? Too often, much of what we experience is performative.

Take a listen to this live conversation and then consider those you and many of us in the community perceive to be an ally.
