Disability in the Arts and Media - Access, Inclusion, Accuracy

Events | 89.3 KPCC: Watch one episode of Game of Thrones and you’ll see why it is one of the most popular shows on television. It’s easy to get lost in the world of warlocks, dragons and vindictive boy-kings, but one character on the HBO drama always brings us back to reality -- Tyrion Lannister, the dwarf brother of the Queen. Tyrion shows that disabled characters need not be defined or limited by their handicap. His struggle for acceptance by his average-sized peers is clear, but he proves himself a driving force of wit and has a depth which many say no other GoT character approaches.
