disabilities

This hour on Audacious, Chion talks with guests about what it's like to leave your home country to make a life in a new one? Plus, a conversation with the first African-American full-face transplant recipient about being part of what he calls the “disabled diaspora”.

On this episode of Audacious, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. So, would you consider yourself beautiful? How do you define beauty, anyway? Hear from a fashion model with decades in the industry, a model who uses a wheelchair, and two non-binary models about what beauty means to them.
