Welcome to today's DISABILITY REPRESENTATION IN THE MEDIA. I've been so excited to see Wicked and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Today we are diving in specifically into how disability was represented both in the movie and in the press surrounding it. Join me for a cozy chat as I unpack the themes of belonging, bias, and advocacy in this long-awaited film. From Marissa Bode and her impactful portrayal of Nessa Rose to the importance of hiring disabled actors, this video dives into the intersection of storytelling, inclusion, and my own experiences as a small business owner dedicated to disability integration at Chez Genèse. Let's explore how media shapes representation and conversations about disability-and how it can do better.
