It was lovely to chat with @marie2monaco about the #Paralympics. We discussed the legacy of the London 2012 Paralympic Games. I'm looking forward to your article on @Mediapart and (hopefully) the segment on @RFI.

It was great to discuss the Paralympics with @AnnitaBBC on BBC World News yesterday! We discussed the legacy of London 2012, the Paris Paralympics & the Games' impact on disability rights. Below is a clip from our discussion. #Paralympics2024 #Paris2024 #London2012

Paralympics begin with tonight's Opening Ceremony. I'm on @France24_en at 12pm (UK time) & @BBCNews at 6.30pm (UK time) to discuss the Paralympics. I'm working on my Paralympics explainer video. Stay tuned so you don't miss out. Busy but exciting day ahead! #Paralympics2024

It was great speaking with @alexjourno on @France24_en about the Paralympics. We talked about the history of the Paralympics and its development. I also considered some athletes to watch. I was on at 12.20pm (ish) if you want to watch it on demand. #Paris2024 #paralympics

My discussion with @TommyShakes is available as an audio podcast: tinyurl.com/mrhy92nv In the below clip, we discuss the concept of universalism, the idea that we're all impaired to different degrees. I asked Tom why this idea is not seen as common sense & accepted widely 👇

"The danger is that we don't see impairment or illness as being, in its own way, limiting. And it can be. Not always. But it can be." @TommyShakes considers #ableism & #disablism: youtu.be/ysj20kRy454 Clip: Paris 2024 Paralympics: What is disability? youtu.be/m0xBIt38B1c

"We have these ideas that we can't have sex. Ever." @TommyShakes challenging common #disability stereotypes: tragic but brave; sinister disabled person; the supercrip: youtu.be/E41Me_t6mYw Clip from: 'Paris 2024 Paralympic Games: What is disability?': youtu.be/m0xBIt38B1c

How should we consider disability? @TommyShakes outlines some key factors to consider when defining #disability: youtu.be/FTNhylKzJbA Clip is from my podcast episode, 'Paris 2024 Paralympic Games: What is disability?', available here: youtu.be/m0xBIt38B1c #Paralympics2024

1st episode of my #Paris2024 #Paralympics series is here: youtu.be/m0xBIt38B1c Featuring @TommyShakes, we focus on the meaning of #disability. A perfect episode to get an understanding of disability before the Paralympics. Let me know what you think by leaving a comment.

I'm really keen to get your thoughts on the Paralympic topics I should address. Please let me know what you think needs to be explained more clearly or is a source of confusion. DM me if you'd rather not reveal what confuses you! #Paris2024 #paralympics #Disability

An example might be: what is the classification system & how does it work? In your opinion, what areas to do with the Paralympics need to be explained more clearly to aid understanding? The videos will be from a social sciences perspective. #Paris2024 #paralympics #Disability

🧵I'm in the process of creating explainer videos about the Paralympics, & I'd love your help! The idea is to create short videos (5 minutes or less), based on academic knowledge, that answer questions people may have about the Paralympics #Paris2024 #paralympics #Disability
