If only there were a reputable company with a proven track record that could be providing access (not just captions but also ASL, audio description) & unlocking the 3rd largest audience segment in the US. Oh yeah, there is. Hire D-PAN, @MSNBC @CBSNews @ABC @CNN @FoxNews.

I'm thrilled to be in this amazing cohort of #DisabilityFutures Fellows. Most of my career has been policy-related. That this fellowship is for my work as a #blindfilmmaker is particularly meaningful. @FordFoundation, @MellonFoundation fordf.org/DisabilityFutu…
