In the second part of the season 2 premiere, Mary sits down continues her conversation with fellow disability advocate Nina Tame. The two discuss advocacy burnout, the pandemic, mental health, and Nina delivers her message to the non-disabled community.
Nina Tame is a disability advocate, writer, and content creator from the UK. She uses her Instagram account to debunk outdated societal myths about disability and the ways ableism runs throughout herself and her life. Her experience of growing up disabled and parenting a disabled child is a continual influence that runs through her work. With wit, passion, and lots of wheelchair selfies, Nina’s work explores the nuances of the disabled experience while contributing to the growing, diverse, and brilliant online disabled community.
