WEBVTT - Introducing - Equal Too: Achieving Disability Equality

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Hi, I'm host Sophie Morgan inviting you to listen to

0:00:03.840 --> 0:00:08.840
<v Speaker 1>equal To, a new podcast about achieving disability equality. With

0:00:08.960 --> 0:00:13.119
<v Speaker 1>the Paralympic Games happening in Tokyo, we're asking where should

0:00:13.160 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 1>the story go next? With my co producer Chanaid Burke,

0:00:17.440 --> 0:00:23.240
<v Speaker 1>will explore big themes like legislation, representation, access, and employment,

0:00:23.600 --> 0:00:27.760
<v Speaker 1>and we'll seek out big solutions and rethink what's possible.

0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:32.320
<v Speaker 1>Along the way, we'll speak to athletes, activists, and allies

0:00:32.360 --> 0:00:35.960
<v Speaker 1>from around the world. The exciting thing is we don't

0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:38.800
<v Speaker 1>yet know whether story will take us, but with guests

0:00:38.840 --> 0:00:42.600
<v Speaker 1>like our Jmitty and Jamila Jamil, the conversation is going

0:00:42.680 --> 0:00:46.840
<v Speaker 1>to be compelling to come along with us. Maybe, like me,

0:00:47.040 --> 0:00:51.280
<v Speaker 1>you're disabled, maybe you're not. Either way, this story is

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:54.640
<v Speaker 1>for you. Equal To is brought to you by the

0:00:54.680 --> 0:00:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Emmy Award winning team that created Rising Phoenix, the film

0:00:58.240 --> 0:01:01.400
<v Speaker 1>about the Paralympic Games, and made possible by the support

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:05.840
<v Speaker 1>of Procter and Gamble. Listen to equal To. That's Equal
