Show Notes
Carly Findlay is an author and appearance activist who lives with a rare skin condition called ichthyosis, which makes her skin scaly and red.
What this means is that Carly has to put up with a lot of silly, inappropriate and downright rude questions from strangers.
In this chat with Jamila Rizvi, Carly explains what it’s like to be trolled for how you look, how she’s coped with ableism during the pandemic, and why she sees disability as a culture to be proud of.
