Hollywood v. Disability

Podcast Platforms

PBW May 2023

In the May episode of The Purposely Broken World, Kevin breaks down the disability hierarchy portrayed in modern cinema. Hollywood only uses disabilities that are easily manageable or easily hidden. Too often, people with disabilities are typecast as the inspiration or the villain. Hopefully, this episode will start a conversation that will lead to change. All comments are welcome.

Disability Limbo Newsletter

I started Letters from the Limbo as a way to connect with you on a deeper level. Twice a month, I send out an email filled with personal anecdotes, professional updates (like my recent reelection as Vice Chair of the NJCDD), and the policy insights I don’t share anywhere else. This isn’t just another email—it’s an unfiltered look at the life of a disability advocate. Join my community and get an exclusive, honest look at the work that matters
