Getting to Know Robyn and her series on Horizontal Hostility

Sunday Edition Presents Getting to Know Robyn Bradley Wallen And An Introduction to Her Conversations on Horizontal Hostility Join us on the next Sunday Edition as Anthony Corona welcomes longtime advocate, transportation activist, and community voice Robyn Bradley Wallen for an honest, thoughtful, and deeply important conversation about disability advocacy, coalition building, and the difficult realities of what is known as “horizontal hostility” within marginalized communities. Born with congenital cataracts and navigating a world built with barriers at every turn, Robyn transformed personal frustration into decades of impactful advocacy. From fighting inaccessible paratransit systems while working for TWA Airlines, to helping pave the way for rideshare access in St. Louis, to serving on transportation and accessibility commissions, Robyn’s work has centered on accountability, empowerment, and making sure disabled voices are not left behind. Her advocacy journey has taken her through leadership roles with the National Federation of the Blind, the Missouri Council of the Blind, transportation committees, grassroots organizing, media interviews, op eds, lawsuits, and public policy conversations. Along the way, one difficult question kept surfacing: Why do marginalized communities sometimes struggle to support one another? That question led Robyn into a deep exploration of “horizontal hostility,” the tension, infighting, and division that can emerge within oppressed groups themselves. It is a conversation that resonates far beyond disability advocacy and one Robyn has been unpacking through powerful discussions on social media and in advocacy circles. This Sunday’s episode is not about blame. It is about honesty. It is about growth. It is about understanding how communities heal, fracture, rebuild, and move forward together. Robyn will also be sharing details about her upcoming podcast joining the Sunday Edition family, where these advocacy conversations and many more will continue.
