Episode Synopsis

A considered show this month with Phil and Simon. We review the deeply unsettling BBC documentary ‘Targeted - the truth about disability hate crime’. You can watch it on iPlayer. On YouTube, we've posted a video of us discussing the documentary. (links to both below)Simon recently attended some equality training called Beyond Bias, delivered by Guilaine Kinouani from Race Reflections. Two elements struck him as relevant to disability equality, so we try and see if they apply. First was the concept of intergenerational trauma, and the second, a quote from Audre Lorde (pictured below) ‘There’s no such thing as a single-issue struggle because we don’t live single-issue lives".Listeners Corner is a bumper one this month, and we finish with Cultural Corner, a new addition to the Show, where we recommend a couple of items you might be interested in. It could be another podcast, a book, a tv show, film, blog or article. Geoff Adams-Spink provides the suggestions.LinksTargeted - the truth about disability hate crime  BBC iPlayerThe Way We Roll YouTube channelBeyond Bias training from Race ReflectionsIntergenerational traumaAudre Lorde No such thing as a single-issue struggle because we don't live single-issue livesGuilane Kinouani on TwitterAdam Buxton podcast with Stewart LeeFall - The Mystery of Robert Maxwell by John Preston Hardback linkFall - The Mystery of Robert Maxwell by John Preston  Audible audiobook linkOur thanks to Geoff Adams-Spink - Twitter @GAdams_SpinkYou can find us in Apple Podcasts or Spotify  If you have any comments, feedback or suggestions, please email us at [email protected]  We hope you enjoy it.
