このコンテンツについて

n this episode of Disability Rights Now, host Matt Shedd talks with National Council on Independent Living director Theo Braddy about his new memoir, From Shack to the White House: A Memoir of Four Lives. Theo traces his journey from growing up poor in the deep South, to acquiring a spinal cord injury at 15, to surviving a nursing home, becoming a family and community leader, and ultimately serving as a national voice for disability rights and independent living. He reflects on internalized ableism, the trauma of institutionalization, the power of knowledge, and what it meant to hear President Joe Biden call him “a man of great courage.” From Shack to the White House: A Memoir of Four Lives is available as an ebook through many platforms: https://books2read.com/fromshacktowhitehouse
