How do you advocate for disabled lives? with Ola Ojewumi

<div>Ola Ojewumi is a force of nature. When she was nine she learned she had a rare heart condition and by eleven she was faced with undergoing kidney and heart transplants. She grew up navigating a complex world of intersectional privilege and challenge which was only exacerbated when, as a young adult, she was diagnosed with cancer and soon after became a wheelchair user. <br> <br> She's a fierce advocate for the disabled community, having worked with Lady Gaga, Nancy Pelosi, Cory Booker, Steny Hoyer, and Barack Obama. She accomplishes more before breakfast than I do in an entire year. Today, she gives us a look at disability advocacy, the lyrical dust up involving Beyonce and Lizzo, and choosing our words more thoughtfully.<br> <br> Social links:<br> Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/headonfirepod/">https://www.instagram.com/headonfirepod/</a><br> Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/headonfirepod">https://twitter.com/headonfirepod</a><br> TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@headonfirepod">https://www.tiktok.com/@headonfirepod</a><br> <br> Support my work on Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/headonfirepod">https://www.patreon.com/headonfirepod</a><br> <br> Subscribe to the Head On Fire podcast<br> Apple Podcasts: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/head-on-fire/id337689333">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/head-on-fire/id337689333</a><br> Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/4qTYYhCLMdFc4PhQmSL1Yh?si=5387b774ed6e4524">https://open.spotify.com/show/4qTYYhCLMdFc4PhQmSL1Yh?si=5387b774ed6e4524</a> </div>
