Ep 28 Disability Advocacy and Kindle 2: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

From the hot to trot new e-reader (KINDLE 2) to airport issues and disability rights– you can

know Paige and Kathy will have rousing issues, resources and discussion with each episode of TE LIVE!

• How many of us really know what it’s like to have a disability that changes the way we have to function in society?
• Have you ever found yourself becoming irritated or frustrated because someone with a disability makes YOUR life inconvenient?
• What type of resources are available for those who are disabled and those who interact with them?

Listen as Kathy, who does have a disability, and Paige, who doesn’t, discuss various resources and advocacy activities for everyone that can help all of us learn to co-exist in a society that is often unknowing and sometimes uncaring about the challenges a disabled person faces just to get through the day.
