Episode: Talking Ableism, Hashtag Appropriation and Rom-Coms with Keah Brown
Created: April 13, 2018
Duration: 59 minutes and 50 seconds
Overview: On this week’s podcast, Ana sat down with writer, journalist and disability rights activist Keah Brown for a difficult conversation about the erasure of disability, ableism, and much more. The jumping off point for their discussion is a piece Keah wrote about loving romantic comedies even though they perpetuate an ideal body image to which she can aspire but never achieve. However, she also noted that since writing the piece two years ago, her thoughts on body positivity and self-love have evolved.
