SXSW – Eliminating Inspiration Porn from Disability Stories

Spoiler alert: disabled people are not your inspiration, and we’re more than just suffering. But why does Hollywood keep telling the same stories over and over again? In this fun, unfiltered conversation, disabled creatives discussed the harmful effects of inspiration porn, a term coined by the late disability activist Stella Young, and how we can strive to tell better stories of disability on-screen.
