We also spoke about becoming the 2nd and, at the time, the last Special Advisor on International Disability Rights at the White House when Joe Biden appointed her. Abelism, Islamophobia, and rhetoric having an impact on narratives were discussed. We also spoke about closer to my home, and her thoughts on Sir Jim Ratcliffe claiming that "Immigrants have colonised the UK". We of course spoke about what it is like to travel with a disability, as she is blind. What can be done to improve travel for individuals, whether that's airports or businesses? 👉More on Sara Minkara:Created the Disability Foreign Policy Playbook and advanced disability priorities across major global forums, including the G7, APEC, ASEAN, and C5+1.
