Disability Represented in Video Games Panel at MomoCon 2024

Image with text that says Disability Represented in Video Games (MomoCon 2024). Image includes depictions of a few different disabled video game characters including Symmetra from Overwatch, Mae from Night in the Woods, and Garl from Sea of Stars.

 The video from the MomoCon panel on disability representation in video games was posted to YouTube back in August 2024 -- and here it is now on the blog! One of the biggest setbacks from speaking on disability representation from a lived experience is, of course, that you actually have a disability that can slow down your progress with things like updating your blog. But without further ado, here's the video! Feel free to go watch it on YouTube as well if the embedded version is less accessible for you.
