Clickbait & Crutches: Community

Alice discovers how the internet makes it easier - and harder - to find community as disabled people.

  • This episode of Clickbait & Crutches features Dave Batten, Cha’Nel Kaa-Luke (Ngāti Porou, Ngāruahine, Ngāti Ruanui), and Nigel Ngahiwi (Ngāti Maniapoto).

    Clickbait & Crutches is a new web series exploring disability and the internet. Produced in partnership between The D*List, Sweet Productions and Wellington-based writer and activist Alice Mander, and made with support from InternetNZ, the series looks at how living online impacts our communities in different ways. Across the four six-minute episodes, Clickbait & Crutches looks at how disability and the internet intersect with creativity, community, activism and identity.

    Sweet Productions is a new and innovative disability-led company established to bring purposeful, authentic and diverse content to a wide audience spectrum.
