Description

Disability has always existed, but ensuring equal rights for people with disabilities has not. This week on Health Wanted, host Laurel Bristow and filmmaker/disability rights advocate James Lebrecht talk about his documentary, "Crip Camp," review the history of the disability rights movement and the importance of continuing to advocate for equality.

And Laurel answers your questions about C-sections and colon cancer, uncured vs. cured hot dogs, and the FDA's recent moves to phase out animal testing.

For a full rundown on all the information shared in today's episode, take a look at the Show Notes.
