to the memory of Peggy Hecker,
long time Pushing Limits member,
who died earlier this year.
The complex history of the word cripple
How to include
people with verbal, cognitive,
developmental, emotional
and other discounted disabilities
The story of a disabled woman
powering a diesel truck
through the Australian desert
Excerpts from a steamy love story called Cripple Poetics.
Wha Hoo!
Performance artists and poets join us in the studio!
Audio describer, Lakshmi Fjord
Produced by Adrienne Lauby
Seashore
by Amber DiPietra
Set to music and sung by Mindy Dillard
A seashore inside her, she is drifting
in the shallows of a short nap’s trip
inland and when
you put your arm leg hand near
enough to mine all my
cheek cells will come wading, swinging
lanterns and singing, out to meet you

Neil played a clip from the 1950 film
and joined José Ferrer in this statement:
No thank you, no, I thank you,
and again I thank you.
Neil & Jose: To sing, To laugh
To walk in my own way
free with an eye to see things as they are
Neil: A Poet!
A voice that means manhood.
To [put?] my head where I choose.
Not a word, a Yes,
Neil & Jose: a No
To fight
Neil and Jose: for right
But never to make a line
I have not heard in my own heart.
