Today’s episode we discuss disability representation in film. We also go over the definition of inspiration porn and how it feeds into the harmful imagery of disabled folks. Shoutout to Stella Young (RIP) for coining the term.
We discuss a few popular movies and decide rather or not it is representation or inspiration porn. We also challenge the film industry to do better and hire disabled folks to control their narratives. If it can’t be done, then don’t make the story.
