Christine Malec🎧 This month, The Disability Collective is mounting 20 Years Later: The (In)Accessibility of Ontario, a photography exhibition showcasing the shortcomings of the AODA (Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act). When Describer/Consultant duo JJ Hunt and Christine Malec were brought on board to write the visual descriptions, they proposed an experiment: instead of JJ writing the descriptions and Christine consulting, as usual, what if Christine (who

In this episode, JJ and Christine discuss the challenges, advantages, and results of this unique, disability-led approach. This podcast page also has a link to the exhibit including text and audio of the image descriptions.
