In this episode we get to chat with Rachel Donegan who is is an Assistant Professor of English at Tennessee Technological University, specializing in composition, rhetoric, and disability studies. In this riveting conversation we get to pick Rachel’s brain about what accessibility means and how we can be better allies in creating more space for those with disabilities, either seen or unseen. This was a beautiful conversation about creating more room for all voices to be heard to create a world that can accommodate a wider range of our varied human experience. We loved this conversation with Rachel and gained so many key take aways from her expertise on the subject.
