あらすじ・解説
“Disability isn't about the fact that I can't walk. Disability is about the lack of choice I have in my life… and that's my passion in all reasonable efforts, why I became a political animal because I acknowledged that as a person with a disability, I didn't have access to rights.” Todd Winther
In this episode, Angel is joined by Todd Winther, a political scientist and self-confessed ‘political nerd’ interested in political leadership, party politics and disability policy. Todd chose to discuss the statistic: 63% of respondents agree that people with disability are easy to take advantage of or exploit.
The pair chatted just a few weeks after the Final Report on the Disability Royal Commission was released and discuss in detail some of the reasons why people with disability are exploited including the importance of knowing one’s rights and holding power.
From discussing the Disability Royal Commission and rights for people with disability through to quoting Hamilton the musical and covering how to advocate for yourself as a person with disability, this is a rollercoaster episode of stories and tips to empower people with and without disability alike.
