Crippled by Culture is a YouTube podcast that discusses everything in life and relates it to the disabled and chronically ill community. Celebrating the disability community through education, empowerment, unity, and intersectionality, we strongly hold anti-racist, anti-patriarchy, anti-cis heteronormativity, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and (absolutely) anti-ableist values, and we want you to share your experiences with us and the world!
