For H*33, Kari is back! We start off with some quick news--the Queen’s birthday, Michael Sam being cut from the St. Louis Rams, and the ceasefire from Gaza--before moving into the main topic of ableism. What are some ways in which ableism is commonly perpetuated in our society? When it intersects with race and class and gender? For this week’s asks and submissions from listeners, we read uneclochette’s submission about codeswitching, an anonymous ask about our recording style, and nicejewishqueer’s submission regarding anti-Semitism in anti-Zionist movements.
