Join me, Wesley Hamilton, and immerse yourself in a journey of powerful narratives at the crossroads of being Black and disabled. We've got the dynamic Lauren Lolo Spencer in the studio, an award-nominated actress and disability lifestyle influencer, who has been rewriting the script since her diagnosis at 14. Tune in as we peel back the layers on navigating the world from this unique intersection, particularly exploring barriers and opportunities within business, wealth accumulation, and representation.
We'll pull no punches as we dissect societal attitudes and generational traumas that have woven a complex web around disability and Blackness. Lauren and I will ponder the power of words, self-worth, and the struggles inherent in relationships when you're disabled. Fasten your seatbelts as we maneuver through the dizzying world of dating apps from the perspective of a Black, disabled individual.
Our discourse ranges from the importance of controlling our narratives to the need for creating safe social spaces for individuals with disabilities. You'll hear raw, unfiltered insights on how media and popular culture shape our experiences and perceptions. We round up by exploring the dynamics of taking action, persevering, and shattering societal barriers. Brace yourself for an enlightening ride through advocacy, representation, and barrier-breaking. Lauren’s story will not only inspire you but also challenge you to see the world from a different perspective.
