Podcast: Disability Nation

DisabilityNation
"DisabilityNation is an audio magazine by and for people with disabilities. Too often we hear about the legal, physical or attitudinal barriers facing persons with disabilities in our society today. Unfortunately, not enough attention is focused on those with disabilities simply living life. The goal of DisabilityNation is to provide listeners with an alternative view of disability issues. Often, mainstream media tends to glorify disability or frames us as being heroic because we live our lives and participate in everyday activities. DisabilityNation is produced by people with disabilities. Therefore, we know that living with a disability isn’t heroic, it isn’t inspirational and it isn’t unusual. Its just part of life.

DisabilityNation highlights people working, participating in the sport or recreation of their choice, married couples, singles, children and adults, politicians and couch potatoes who happen to be people with disabilities. You will hear conversations about life, not necessarily about the disability."
