Feed Drop Mini Series: Featuring "Proud Stutter" The Podcast
<p>We’re back with the second installment of our mini series featuring a small selection of other must-listen disability podcasts. This week, we’re exploring a new aspect of disability culture from our friends at Proud stutter. Proud Stutter is a podcast about changing how we understand and talk about stuttering. In this episode, host Maya Chupkov chats with Ina Lalich, a San Francisco-raised, multilingual woman who stutters. </p><p>Maya and Ina talk about language (Ina speaks English, Serbo-Croatian, and French), identity, and learning to take up space. Ina frames stuttering as a tool that enhances creativity, builds empathy, and brings precision to how we communicate. Stigma towards those who stutter is an example of how ableism undergirds what we as a society view as quote normal, and guides how we treat those whose voice or way of being deviates from that normal. </p><p>Proud Stutter is doing powerful work to open our minds to all the different ways there are to voice. Be sure to take a listen, and to follow Proud Stutter on your favorite podcast app.</p><p><br>Check out the original <a href="https://www.proudstutter.org/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">episode page</a> for more information about the show.</p><p><br></p><p>--</p><p>Let us know what you think with a comment or review!</p><p>Visit our website for<a href="https://www.downtothestruts.com/transcripts"> transcripts</a>.</p><p>Subscribe to Qudsiya's Substack, <a href="https://gettingdowntoit.substack.com/">Getting Down To It</a></p><p>Support the team behind the podcast <a href="https://gettingdowntoit.substack.com/"></a><a href="https://ko-fi.com/downtothestruts">with a donation</a></p>
