Putting People First: The Harmful Effects of Ableism, Language, and Objectification, Language Episode (3 of 4)

Description

In this episode I sit down with Joe Stone, Director of Mission at Teton Adaptive and a C7 partial quadriplegic, Pierre Bergman a T7 paraplegic, John Zendler an amputee, about language and asking about disabilities. I also sit down with semi-pro Moose hockey players Drew Akins, Mike Longo, Sean Hannafin to ask about their opinions on language and how to combat slurs. I also sit down with community members Mari Allan Hanna and Anthony Swentosky, and my peers at school to talk more about our language.
