Disabled Artists of South Africa, Trump on Disability

Josh Elwood talks with Mitch Jeserich about President Trump’s attitude toward disability. Then, we seek out disabled and deaf artists in South Africa with Leroy F. Moore Jr. and Simon Manda.

Leroy F. Moore Jr is the founder of Krip Hop Nation. He recently visited seven South African cities with Simon Manda, the cofounder of THISABILITY, a South African newspaper covering the disabled community.

Mitch Jeserich is host of KPFA’s Letters and Politics.

We also discuss HB 610 a bill that funds a huge attack on public education in the form of voucher programs by directly de-funding education for children with disabilities.
