Listen "Life with a Facial Scar: Dan Elston"
Episode Synopsis
"I will slash your face", "You look like a thug", "you're the ugliest person I've ever seen".I challenge you to listen to this podcast to understand the reality of blatant discrimination that people with visible differences face in "polite society". Discrimination that involves regular threats of physical violence, denial of access to job roles and a dismissive/uncaring attitude by those in a position of power.Introducing my good friend Dan Elston from @amanandhisface, someone still coming to terms with the trauma of a life of stigmatisation and unjust treatment. Who is now using his lived experience to affect positive change for the visible difference community. Do you really care about people facing inequality or do you just jump on the bandwagon?Be one of the people who did what was right BEFORE it becomes trendy.
