Musician Jerome Ellis on This American Life

I heard a piece of music by Ellis during the Alt-Text as Poetry workshop in which I participated yesterday, and one of the instructors mentioned this performance.

Well, that's what I was afraid of but, on the other hand, the history of media tech is one of my pet subjects, and it would be interesting to compare/contrast the image of kingship in that movie with the image of Bidan as president in a democracy where disability rights were definitely part of his platform and his public speech.

Samuel Jackson has also discussed how he got into acting because he had a stutter, which he reenacts in the movie The Kingsmen, but it's also kind of ew, because he is the meglomaniac villain and his henchwoman is an Asian assassin with prosthetic feet, so it's doubly ew.
