Visible and Unapologetic: Nila Morton on Disability, Desire, and Creator Culture

Watch the video version on YouTube: <a href= "https://youtu.be/mSumRVieRjc">https://youtu.be/mSumRVieRjc</a> Hosts Keith and Jodi interview Nila Morton, a Black disabled woman, content creator, social worker, and disability advocate, about visibility, fashion, desire, sex education, and how ableism and racism shape who is seen as desirable or fully adult; she describes pushback for discussing relationships and sex, the need to normalize disability in public, and how she sets boundaries while educating others. The episode's Deep Cut reviews the documentary "Patrice: The Movie," about Patrice Jetter and Garry Wickham facing benefits rules that penalize marriage and cohabitation, including the SSI $2,000 savings limit, loss of benefits tied to fundraising, accessible transportation barriers, and the looming threat of institutionalization. The hosts connect the story to policy efforts like the Marriage Equality for Disabled Adults Act and related SSI reforms. <ul> <li>Find Nila online: <a href= "https://linktr.ee/NilaNMorton">https://linktr.ee/NilaNMorton</a></li> </ul>

WCAG Explained: Mark Miller on Digital Accessibility

Watch the video version on YouTube: <a href= "https://youtu.be/y6Jck3rU5FI">https://youtu.be/y6Jck3rU5FI</a> On this episode of Disability Deep Dive, hosts Jodi and Keith interview Mark Miller, founder and CEO of Inclusion Impact Accessibility and a contributor to the W3C Accessibility Maturity Model, about what it means for state and local governments to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA and the implications of the DOJ Title II rule with an (now extended) April 24, 2027, deadline for entities serving 50,000+ people. Mark explains WCAG, common barriers across websites, documents, apps, videos, and kiosks; the inefficiency of retrofitting versus building accessibility into design, development, QA, and governance; and why overlays don't deliver "full compliance." The episode also discusses media representation, including CODA, Bridgerton, The Pitt, and a Deep Cut analysis of Todd Browning's 1932 film Freaks, weighing its historical visibility of disabled performers against harmful language, exploitation, and horror framing. <ul> <li>Inclusion Impact Accessibility: <a href= "https://inclusionimpact.co/">https://inclusionimpact.co/</a></li> <li>Mark Miller: <a href= "https://inclusionimpact.co/mark-miller/">https://inclusionimpact.co/mark-miller/</a></li> </ul>

More Than a Moment: Jhónelle Bean on Tourette's, Communities of Color, and Advocacy

Watch the video version on YouTube: <a href= "https://youtu.be/CdAXtUnGIeg">https://youtu.be/CdAXtUnGIeg</a> On this episode of Disability Deep Dive, hosts Keith and Jodi speak with Jhónelle Bean, a disability advocate and ASL interpreter with Tourette syndrome, about the BAFTA Film Awards incident in which John Davidson involuntarily shouted the N-word onstage and how the public response split between denying Tourette's realities and dismissing Black harm; Jhónelle explains common misconceptions, describes Tourette's as a neurological tic disorder with a spectrum of motor and vocal tics (including but not limited to coprolalia), and discusses intersectionality, including added risks for Black people with Tourette's around policing and disbelief. The conversation emphasizes listening to lived experience, empathy, and accountability for media decisions, including reported editing choices. In the Deep Cut segment, they revisit "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," noting outdated stereotypes and body-shaming, and discuss the film's shallow treatment of caregiving, grief, Arnie's disability portrayal, and Bonnie's dignity, including the ending's "convenient" resolution. Jhónelle's social media: <ul> <li>Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/Jhonelle_bean">https://www.instagram.com/Jhonelle_bean</a></li> <li>TikTok: <a href= "https://www.tiktok.com/@Jhonelle_bean">https://www.tiktok.com/@Jhonelle_bean</a></li> <li>YouTube: <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/@Jhonelle_Bean">https://www.youtube.com/@Jhonelle_Bean</a></li> </ul>
