Episode description

On this episode, I sit down with community activist and queer senior Lezlie Lee Kam. She shares with us why she refers to herself as "differently abled" and why that is important to her. She also shares her experience becoming disabled and re-learning what access really means. Lastly, she tells us what it has been like for her trying to navigate the LGBTQ+ community as a queer senior and so much more. Enjoy!

Lezlie is part of the Youth Elder Project through Buddies and Bad Times Theatre in Toronto and you can find out all about that here: http://buddiesinbadtimes.com/show/the-youth-elders-podcast/
