The Mad and Crip Theology Podcast
This podcast is hosted by Amy Panton and Miriam Spies. We are Mad and Crip theologians who want to contribute to change. Join us as we talk with theologians, artists, activists, writers and members of the mad/disabled and crip communities who are doing important work in Canada and around the world. This podcast is an opportunity to model how faith communities can engage in theological and spiritual conversations around madness and cripness. For accessibility, transcripts are included beside the podcast description. Watch the podcast with captions on our YouTube page here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRUW9z5hoqP_WK74hg3N8bQ
