When Heroes Look Like Us: The Lifeline of Representation Inspired by Carmella Alexander
Update: 2025-08-03
Description
In this episode, we explore the transformative power of authentic representation for children with disabilities and other marginalized identities. Inspired by Carmella Alexander’s advocacy, we discuss why seeing yourself as the hero in stories, toys, and media is not a luxury but a lifeline. Discover how intentional inclusion—rooted in justice, not tokenism—can reshape cultures, empower communities, and ensure every child knows they belong. Join us as we challenge listeners to take meaningful action, celebrate difference, and help create a world where every child can see themselves as the hero of their own story.
