57. Rebranding Disability With Tiffany Yu

Movement Makers With Nikki Groom

In this episode of the podcast, Tiffany Yu joins me for a conversation about disability advocacy, economic justice, and collective liberation. She talks openly about how she came to own her personal disability story, and highlights how we can embrace adversity in even the most difficult of circumstances.

Tiffany has been named one of the "100 most influential Asian Americans of 2017," one of "100 visionary leaders," and a "women of influence" honoree. She has been featured in Marie Claire, Forbes, the Guardian, the Ford Foundation, and The Wall Street Journal, and has spoken at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos, TEDx, and Harvard.

Tiffany is an incredible spokesperson for inclusion and allyship, and developing pride around disability. In this episode, she shares how her obstacles are the greatest things that have ever happened to her, and how everyone can be an ally for disability justice.
