COVID is not over. It is still here. This is an invitation to understand that reality, and to let it transform you.

Grounded in disability justice, and brought to you by a chorus of staunch disabled voices: Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, Darcy from Sick/Sovereign, Tori Hobbs and Julia Rose Bak from The Disability Justice Network and Li from COVID Solidarity ‘syd.’

Produced by Samantha Haran, Shareeka Helaluddin & Sehej Kaur. Additional thanks to Justin Chen, Allison Chan and Juliet Fox.
