From Pity to Perspective: Featuring Lillian Joy

It is far too commonplace that disabled individuals and their families receive pity from passersby. The mere thought of disability becomes worst case scenario for most people who have no experience at all with disability. But this is not, and should not, be the case. On this episode of The Bitching and Bolusing Podcast we sit down with Lillian Joy to discuss the harm that can come from being on the receiving end of other peoples pity. Lillian has developed a keynote speech titled "From Pity to Perspective" based on the experiences that she's had throughout her life as a disabled individual.   You can find Lillian on Instagram at @yours.very.truly.lillian Lillians Keynote speech can be found here
