ALT Text reads: “Easterseals Disability Arts & Culture Awards Submissions Open TODAY, June 16.” The logo for the awards name uses an all-caps cream-colored type treatment with letterforms that have a slightly art deco feel, conveying elegance and prestige. The background color scheme includes deep chocolate brown, maroon, and ultramarine blue, fanning out like beams from a spotlight.

"I’ve seen the toll #LongCOVID takes on the lives of my friends and colleagues. Like any mass-disabling event, it highlights how little support society gives disabled people." — Skye Tenorio, AD for Strangely Optimistic in the @disabilitychall. 🎬😷

DJ Abby had me on WPFW FM-Meeting in the Ladies Room to share Strangely Optimistic I produced in collaboration w @MsJulieSLam @TogetherWeMask for @disabilitychall. The art industry can do more to prevent transmission w #CleanAir. Appreciative of the discussion!

I really enjoyed the sharing of knowledge about COVID and Long COVID and all the great songs!
Easterseals Disability Film Challenge retweeted
I partnered with @NinaStorey to make Strangely Optimistic as an editor and producer because I want to show what is like to live with #longcovid, including gaslighting.

We need community support, especially from all the advocates and organizations. Two long haulers trying to expose the reality of living with disabling symptoms. Need likes, sharing and comments on YouTube, Facebook, and all the posts as well.

This is the reality we keep denying. Perfect health. One infection. Everything changed. It's not rare. We just stopped counting.
Easterseals Disability Film Challenge retweeted
I love using old childhood photos of myself in my films because it shows how much my body has changed due to my disability
There’s a sense of beauty of having them in it in both in visual storytelling and the personal remembrance of the kid who believes in himself no matter what

My @disabilitychall film "Back to the Dark Ages" is out!
Know how there's been zero representation of characters who wear masks and/or have Long COVID in the media? That changes today! Watch the new dramedy "Back to the Dark Ages", which features the story of Christina, a woman living with Long COVID, who accidentally summons a medieval ghost who has lived through a plague or two in her own time. You can help us in the competition by liking, commenting on, and sharing the video linked in this post.
Authentically cast and made by a mostly disabled team working together with seasoned industry professionals, it was very important for me to make a piece with high production values to do this important topic justice.
