Podcasts

Esta lista de podcasts es una recopilación de recomendaciones de padres y miembros de la comunidad, que se ofrece como un recurso para explorar una variedad de perspectivas sobre la discapacidad y la identidad. Reconocemos que las experiencias de discapacidad e identidad son amplias y variadas, y ningún podcast puede abarcar perfectamente todo el espectro de experiencias vividas. Esto incluye la amplia gama de discapacidades (visibles e invisibles, físicas y cognitivas, del desarrollo y adquiridas) y las diversas necesidades de apoyo, que pueden variar significativamente. Las experiencias se ven moldeadas además por las complejidades de la interseccionalidad, que incluyen la raza, la etnia, la identidad de género, la orientación sexual, el nivel socioeconómico y más. La inclusión de un podcast en esta lista no constituye un respaldo de todas las opiniones o puntos de vista expresados en sus episodios. Estos podcasts representan narrativas y perspectivas individuales, y es posible que no reflejen todas las experiencias. Alentamos a las familias a interactuar con el material de manera crítica y reflexiva, reconociendo que estas recomendaciones son un punto de partida para una mayor exploración y debate sobre la naturaleza diversa y multifacética de la discapacidad y la identidad.

Queremos crear una lista de podcasts que refleje la rica diversidad de nuestra comunidad y necesitamos tu ayuda. Queremos asegurarnos de que nuestra colección sea inclusiva y representativa de todos, por lo que te animamos a que agregues podcasts que celebren las diversas facetas de la discapacidad y la identidad.

Discapacidad: Comparta podcasts que resalten las experiencias y perspectivas de las personas con discapacidad.
Raza y etnicidad: Contribuya con podcasts que muestren las diversas culturas e historias de nuestra comunidad.
