Presented by Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, part of the Disability Unbound Lecture Series (produced by Disability South and Disability South Rising). Care is a need and a right, for everyone but especially those of us who are disabled. However, care is also complicated- it's not always been safe or accessible for many of us to give, ask for and receive the care we need, and we often face conditions of scarcity. However, we know as disabled people we are creative and resourceful in figuring out how to get our needs met, even if it's in deeply imperfect conditions.Transcript Here
