Detroit Disability Power featured in new film – a 3 year exploration of disability and the concept of beauty across the globe by Beth Ann Short, Zian Chavez et al.

A collection of interviews rich in stories, insights, reflections, and disabled joy
Collected across the world by/for people with disabilities
DDP staff was interviewed on Dessa's back porch; we talked about our work and our lived experiences as disabled and chronically ill Detroiters.

Our world is built for and centered on the rights and needs of non-disabled people. Our education-based, groundbreaking film flips that lens, challenging ableism, racism, and the notions of beauty itself demanding dignity, equity, and true inclusion.
