Creating an inclusive workplace isn't the responsibility of one person. Employees, managers and coworkers all have a role to play in accessibility.

Yung Lam's first pick this week looks at what can happen when a talented employee encounters workplace barriers and needs the people around her to understand how she works best.

Here’s Yung’s take:

Review
TV Show: Extraordinary Attorney Woo

This is my favorite Korean TV show, but it is on Netflix and has an English dub and English subtitles. I love this show because it demonstrates how difficult it is for a disabled employee who is very good at her job but needs accommodations to do her job well. It is about an autistic lawyer who struggles at her first job because of her disability and needs her co-workers to work with her disabilities. It also shows different court cases that deal with disability-related subjects. It made me laugh and cry at the same time.

On October 29, we’re bringing together three incredible leaders for Be On Offense: The Mindset That Creates an Inclusive Culture to explore what it looks like when organizations plan for inclusion from the start.

Dustin Giannelli of HearsDustin will open with a 20-minute keynote, followed by a fireside conversation with John D. Kemp and Lisa Doyle exploring disability inclusion, accessibility, workplace culture and leadership, and what it means to move from intention to action.

We’re so pleased to bring these three perspectives together and especially appreciative of InnoCaption for sponsoring the webinar and helping make it possible.

Self-advocacy also means being recognized as a whole person, without stereotypes or assumptions getting in the way.

For her second pick this week, Yung Lam shares a story that stood out to her for its honest portrayal of disabled characters and their fight to advocate for themselves.

Here’s Yung’s take:

Review
FICTION: Good Kings Bad Kings by Susan Nussbaum

This is a very good example of a self-advocacy book. I absolutely loved it. It's a fictional story about a group of disabled teenagers who become trapped in an institution where they are abused by the people running it. They have to self-advocate for themselves to get out of the institution. This book also demonstrated what could happen when we have institutions.

What I loved most was how the disabled characters were written. They weren't perfect angels or inspirational stereotypes. They were stubborn, funny, sarcastic, messy, and sometimes made bad decisions. I would highly recommend this book if you enjoy stories about disabled characters who are witty, funny, and do not fit into a traditional disabled-character mold.

Where to read the book: You can read it for free on the Libby app with your library card. Or you can buy it on Amazon.

Accessible: You can read or listen to it as an audio book.

Are your recruitment practices bringing you the talent you need?

On October 14, Galt CEO Lisa Doyle will join Allis Fox from Talent Connections, LLC to talk about strengthening your team.

Their Wednesday webinar is called "How to Build for What's Next: Advocacy in Action." They'll talk about skills-based recruitment, making the process more accessible, and how to help more people get jobs.

We want to make sure everyone sees this first in a series of media reviews by our Galt Team member.

What are you reading, watching and listening to?

Throughout October, we’re turning to one of our own, Yung Lam who has selected books, films, podcasts and television shows that have shaped her perspective on disability, advocacy, accessibility and inclusion.

Yung has been a staff accountant at Galt for 10 years, moved to the US from Vietnam in 1999 and is also a member of this year’s NDEAM committee, helping shape our celebration for the Galt community. She loves Excel spreadsheets, audiobooks and the wonderful people she gets to work with every day.

Throughout October, we’ll share some of Yung’s favorite books, films, podcasts and shows, along with her personal take on what they can teach us about disability, advocacy, accessibility and inclusion.

It’s all part of Advocacy in Action at Galt.

Here’s Yung’s take:

Review
Nonfiction: Being Heumann: An Unrepentant Memoir of a Disability Rights Activist by Judith Heumann

I read this book several years ago, and it completely changed the way I think about my rights as a person with a disability. It taught me that as a disabled person, I have to self-advocate to get what I need and protect my rights.

Being Heumann is a memoir by Judith Heumann, one of the most influential leaders of the disability rights movement. She played a vital role in the fight for Section 504, the landmark civil rights law that protects people with disabilities from discrimination in education, employment, and public services.

One of the most inspiring parts of the book was learning about the 1977 Section 504 sit-in in San Francisco. When the government refused to sign the regulations into law, Judith and hundreds of disability advocates occupied a federal building for nearly a month until the government finally acted. She also fought for her own right to become a teacher after a school denied her a teaching license simply because she used a wheelchair, claiming she would be a danger to her students. Instead of accepting discrimination, she challenged it and helped change the system for future generations.

Advocacy starts with knowing your strengths. Understanding what you need. Believing you have the right to ask for it.

Whether you're new to self-advocacy or want to get even better at it, this training is for you.

You may already know Jimothy.

This summer, a uniquely shaped raccoon from Seattle captured the internet’s attention after Kiana Hall shared a video of him on Instagram. Before long, Jimothy was everywhere, earning national media attention, his own Google animation, a spot on Roku screensavers and even a night in his honor with the Seattle Mariners.

Now, Jimothy has a new role.

We’re very proud to welcome him as Galt’s official mascot for NDEAM and, who knows, maybe beyond!

Our team connected with Jimothy because his story reminds us of something we celebrate every day at Galt: there is no single way that talent, capability or contribution looks.

And that makes him a pretty great way to kick off National Disability Employment Awareness Month.

Throughout October, we’ll be celebrating our Associates, clients, partners and team members and sharing stories of Advocacy in Action. Jimothy will be right there with us.

Most of all, we’re grateful for the entire Galt community and for everyone who helps us build workplaces where inclusive hiring thrives and more people have the opportunity to contribute and succeed.

A special thank you to Kiana Hall for working with Galt to make Jimothy’s new role possible.

Welcome to Galt, Jimothy. We think you’re going to fit right in.
