EP 24 Katy Tahja

Episode 24 with Katy Tahja is out now! She is a long-time burner and organizer for Mobility Camp, a service-oriented community in Black Rock City. The discussion centers on radical inclusion, highlighting how the camp provides essential infrastructure—such as wheelchairs, repair services, and accessible art tours—to ensure that individuals with disabilities or injuries can fully participate in the event. Katie emphasizes the intergenerational and communal spirit of the playa, sharing anecdotes about "grandma" figures offering comfort and the specialized support available for blind and deaf participants. She dismantles the myth that the festival is only for the young and able-bodied, illustrating how adaptive technology and human kindness allow anyone to experience the "magic" of the desert.https://mobilitycamp.org/https://theava.com/ (Anderson Valley Advertiser)
