Our guest this week is Steve Harris of Lanesboro, MN a free-lance writer, widower, author and father of two sons with disabilities. Part 1.Steve and his wife, Susan, have married for 17 years. Steve and his first wife, Pam, were together for 30 years, before she passed away in 2012 due to a rare neurological disorder. Steve and Pam had two boys: Matthew who was born in 1980 with Spina bifida and younger son, Andrew, who is 37 and who has Cerebral Palsy. Both boys would eventually be diagnosed with PMD or Pelizaeus Merzbacher Disease, a rare neurological disease, where there is a lack of myelin covering the nerves.Very sadly, Matthew passed away in October 2020 four days short of his 40th birthday. Steve's career included being a pastor, a middle school teacher and for 20 years, director of communications at Twin Cities YMCA . All along Steve has been a writer who morer recently has published two books: Dads Like Us: A Survival Guide For Fathers Raising Children With Disabilities (2024)Lanesboro, Minnesota (2018)We also learn about a wide range of supporting organizations the family has benefited from, including: Spina Bifida Association, Boston Children's Hospital, University of MA Medical Center, Genetic Counseling Gillette Children's Hospital (St. Paul), Wanna Meonie's School (Palo Alto) inclusive, and MN Accessible sports.One of Steve's superpowers is his resilience through some of life's greatest challenges.

Watch FORWARD THINKING (2025) NowI'm not sure if the pod has ever gotten a bigger honor than what Antonio Harper & Abby Burton gave it in this episode — sure, they said, listeners can watch our short, currently on its festival run. FORWARD THINKING (2025) is a “surreal short film about a young black man who is attempting to trademark his likeness in the event that he's murdered by the police.” And to me, that sells it short. It's a film about race that goes further than any other film I've seen in a way that makes you think about what you saw so much you'll watch it again, all to make you smile once again with the amazing closing scene. Go watch FORWARD THINKING, go watch it again, and come back and hear this fantastic conversation with an epic filmmaking duo from Cleveland. In this episode, we talk abouthow they got started in filmmaking;what they would recommend in regards to working as a team;the ideas that motivated FORWARD THINKING (2025);How the film goes further than usual on the topic of race — was there pushback for being so bold?;the amazing music for the film — the Cleveland connection got it from Chip Tha Ripper;the importance of a final shot in a short film;how to discuss race, disability, gender in filmmaking and finding the balance in between highlighting and ignoring those areas;the Black ecosystem of film and whether it's represented well in the larger film festival/independent film scene;the advantages of subtlety and how it allows filmmakers to go further than if they were blatantly talking about a topic;The amazingness of Cleveland for independent film;what's next for them — Abby saves them for giving away important information!Abby's Indie Film Highlight: TALK (2025) dir. by Jessica Perlman; RENEGADES - Judy-Lynn del Rey dir. by Jeremy HsingMemorable Quotes:“Don't be a Dwayne. Practice cultural appreciation, not cultural appropriation.”“ Do I see myself wanting to get up at 4:00 AM to run suicides or get up at 4:00 AM for a call?”“The music just ended up being that Cleveland luck”“ Disability and disabled filmmakers are just that, they're just more filmmakers and they need to have their stories told. They need to have the opportunity to show what they can do. And, yes, it's a very vulnerable thing to come out and talk about it when it's not as accepted in the industry.”The approach to race “ should be a lot like what Abby and I did with FORWARD THINKING” “What I would hope to see is, especially in the in industry, is just having more people of color and underrepresented actors in roles that aren't necessarily traditionally tailored for that group.”Links:Follow Abby On InstagramFollow Antonio On InstagramSubscribe To West 10G Productions On YouTubeSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

Robert F Kennedy Jr caused controversy in April by promising to find a cause for autism by September. Claims by the new US secretary for health and human services that autism is a “preventable disease” with an environmental cause, contradict a body of research that suggests autism is caused by a combination of genetic and external factors.The US government announced that to support its new research effort into autism it would build a “data platform” involving data on claims, medical records and consumer wearables. In this episode of The Conversation Weekly podcast, we speak to Amy Gaeta, a research associate at University of Cambridge in the UK who studies disability surveillance. Gaeta talks us through some of the strategies people are using to avoid potential surveillance, from self-diagnosis, to withholding information or being careful with the language they use to describe themselves.

Devastation is the distraction, and the world is not being allowed to see. When will the focus shift back to Gaza? Resetting the camera angle for a convincing story. You are never locked out from learning more. Never say you are not good at politics. Gridlock excuses inaction. Leadership thrives when we feel helpless. The dirty details on the Iran debacle. Amplifying the need for clarity. The stage is on fire, and truth gets smoked out in distractions. The problem isn't chaos, it's multi-domain cleansing. Life is about planting the right seeds. The ultimate check play. This war, like others, has the same patterns and shields. The US is desperate to control China via naval assets. Energy supplies are key. By-product that are good for the Gulf. The new land based alternative. Iran is China's back up plan. Strategic disability for planners. Lip wristed pussies with no missile defense. The NATO member to watch is Turkey. They host US nukes. Russia's has real red lines. Chinese rail tech is a Trojan horse on tracks. And they watch everything. Trade flow leverage is real. When man's hand gets into the Bible, the written word is changed. Book two is out and it shows how they skew things. Shadow groups and code words. Let's all recognize the courage it takes to stand against the system that feeds off chaos.
IN THIS EPISODE: Why did Jesus heal people with disabilities and what does that mean for us today? In this episode, Tyler, Maron, and Barry unpack Matthew 9:27–34, where Jesus heals two blind men in a culture that saw disability as shameful. But the story raises deeper questions: Why do healing stories cause discomfort in the modern disability community? If healing is tied to faith, what does that imply for people today who aren't healed? Why does Jesus sometimes mention forgiving sins and sometimes not? Does physical healing imply something was broken before and how does that affect our theology of wholeness? We also explore the 3 R's of application from the sermon: Remember those the world has forgotten, Reject the values of our broken world, and Receive the mercy of our Savior. Watch as we dig into ancient shame culture, contractual theology, and how the church can faithfully preach healing without unintentionally reinforcing harmful assumptions. ⏰ TIMESTAMPS: 0:09 - What's New with the Gang 00:44 - Pacers NBA Finals Loss & Family Reactions 15:05 - Transition to Sermon Discussion 20:00 - Disability, Healing, and Ancient Context 27:27 - Faith, Healing, and Discomfort 32:22 - Theology of Healing & Faith 36:36 - Prophecy, Inclusion, and New Creation 42:59 - Jesus, Context, and Social Inclusion 46:21 - Healing, Wholeness, and Social Models 52:24 - Remembering the Forgotten & Mercy 56:36 - Rejecting Broken World Values 01:03:09 - Receiving Mercy & Contractual Theology 01:06:21 - Where Do We Go Next?

Over the last few episodes, we've talked about disability rights, history, the law, and intersectional movement building. Today we're going to dive into another important aspect of the disability experience—disability culture. We'll listen in on Qudsiya's conversation with Dagny Brown and Mika Weissbuch, two of the three co-directors of the San Francisco Disability Cultural Center, or DCC. Dagny and Mika recounted the DCC origin story, their vision for its role in San Francisco and beyond, and Qudsiya, Dagny, and Mika talked about why creating a shared space and experiences for people of all backgrounds, regardless of whether they identify as being disabled or not, is a powerful tool for breaking down stigma and confronting ableism.--Let us know what you think with a comment or review!Visit our website for transcripts.

Disability advocates are worried funding for subsidised transport will be cut without notice - fearing the situation could be the same as the shock cuts to disability support service funding last March.
This week we're looking at the representation of disabled people in politics. Why are there so few disabled politicians? What impact does that have? And what can be done to level the playing field? While one in five people in the UK is disabled, the proportion of disabled individuals among elected representatives is significantly lower. Despite broader discussions on inclusive politics, disability remains an often-overlooked aspect of the conversation. For many people working in this area, addressing such challenges isn't just about fairness; it's also about ensuring that disabled citizens have their voices heard in political decision-making. A new book addressing these challenges was published last year, and a recent article in The Political Quarterly highlights its key themes. The book and article explore the structural barriers that disabled candidates and politicians face and provide actionable recommendations for change. In this episode, we speak with the co-authors of both the book and the article: Prof Elizabeth Evans – Professor of Politics at the University of Southampton. Dr Stefanie Reher – Reader in Political Science at the University of Strathclyde. Join us as we discuss the systemic obstacles, potential solutions, and the importance of disability-inclusive politics. Mentioned in this episode: Stefanie Reher and Elizabeth Evans.

Brooke talks to Catrina from People First, an organisation dedicated to supporting adults with learning disabilities and those who are neurodiverse. They discuss the alarming rise in hate crimes against individuals with disabilities and the proactive measures taken through the Safe Bus Streets initiative, which empowers community members with safety strategies and self-advocacy tools. They also talk about Catrina's personal journey from being a dancer to becoming a leader in the disability advocacy space, highlighting the importance of open conversations about disability, the social model versus the medical model, and the need for genuine engagement with the disabled community. KEY TAKEAWAYS A community-driven program was developed in response to an increase in hate crimes against adults with disabilities. It includes safety workshops, self-defence techniques, and resources to help individuals feel secure in their environment. Disability is a diverse and complex experience, and individuals within the disabled community may have differing opinions and needs. It's crucial to respect personal preferences and boundaries regarding language and support. Activism can take many forms, and love-fuelled activism emphasises compassion and understanding. Engaging in difficult conversations about disability and societal perceptions can lead to meaningful change. After a period of illness, rediscovering dance through wheelchair ballet provided a sense of joy and empowerment. This experience highlights the importance of movement and expression in the lives of individuals with disabilities. BEST MOMENTS "We've had an increase in hate crime towards adults with disabilities in our area and we knew we had to do something about that." "It's just treating people on their level and I think we talk about that line when it comes to easy read documents." "I think it's really tricky but everybody should be dealt with on an individual basis." "I would fight for a person's right to call me any name under the sun, but I would also fight for the right to say something right back to them." "It's important that we speak for ourselves and not for the community at large." VALUABLE RESOURCES https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/disabled-and-proud/id1621152878 HOST BIO Disabled and Proud is the show that brings listeners a different perspective on disability.

In this episode of IDD Health Matters, Dr. Craig Escudé sits down with Wesley Anderson, Director of Employment and Community Services at the National Association of State Directors of Developmental Disabilities Services (NASDDDS). Live from Salt Lake City, they dive deep into the critical connection between employment and health outcomes for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Wesley discusses his work co-leading the State Employment Leadership Network, a collaborative effort with 26 U.S. states aimed at integrating employment across all levels of support systems. Learn how employment isn't just about earning a paycheck—it's a powerful social determinant of health that affects access to food, healthcare, transportation, social inclusion, and overall wellbeing. From dismantling common misconceptions about hiring people with disabilities to explaining how employers can access support services at no cost, Wesley delivers actionable insight for businesses, caregivers, and policymakers alike. He also shares his personal journey into the field and offers three powerful takeaways for anyone looking to make a difference in the IDD community. Whether you're an employer, advocate, support provider, or simply curious about how inclusive employment can shape lives, this episode will expand your understanding and inspire you to act.
