Discussing how Coronavirus has impacted disability activism, rights for neuro-minorities, and socially engaged artistic practices
Missed our online event, discussing how Coronavirus has impacted disability activism, rights for neuro-minorities, and socially engaged artistic practices? Watch the full video above, with captions and BSL interpretation by Ali Gordon.
Last week was the second event in Autograph’s series exploring human rights in light of Covid-19, with speakers Kate Adams (Project Art Works), Deborah Williams (Creative Diversity Network), Kevin Caulfield and Tara Flood (disability rights activists). Hosted by Autograph’s Livvy Murdoch.
Regretfully, the BSL interpretation is not visible during Kate’s presentation, between 5 minutes and 25 seconds – 26 minutes and 5 seconds.
