On this week’s episode of lifelong learners. Holly and chatty talk about the history of education rights for children with disabilities. Holly also talks about how she uses outdated terminology to describe how people with disabilities were treated back in the days before they had any rights at all. She also talks about the importance of speaking up about educational rights for students with disabilities.

For this episode of lifelong learners, Holly brought in another book, Welcome to AuDHD by Gina Griffith. I picked the chapter to Mask or not to Mask as the chapter I wanted to read and have chatty make comments on. Also chatty went a little off topic because we’re upset about the decision that was made by the judge about the Texas v Kennedy lawsuit against people with disabilities and I will talk about this in my next episode.

If you want to find more information about the book you can go to Barnes and noble and I will leave a link to their website
