Tiffany Yu's Anti-Ableist Manifesto: From TikTok to Global Change

In this episode of The I Can’t Stand Podcast, Peta Hooke speaks with disability advocate, entrepreneur, and author Tiffany Yu. Tiffany is the founder of Diversability and the author of The Anti-Ableist Manifesto, a powerful guide that evolved from her viral TikTok series.

• Disability pride, disabled joy, and unlearning internalised ableism

• The challenges of representation and inspiration tropes
