Episode Synopsis

- Disability is often most persistent due to societal attitudes and structures, not physical or mental challenges.- Invisible social barriers can be more obstructive than physical accessibility issues.- Society's response varies between visible and invisible disabilities, often leading to patronizing treatment of those with visible differences.- Despite progress in policy and awareness, fundamental attitudes and prejudices remain resistant to change.- The true barriers are attitudinal, rooted in stereotypes and assumptions, rather than physical obstacles.
