In this special episode marking European Independent Living Day, host Kamil Goungor sits down with activists Jamie Bolling and Nina Portolan for an honest, intergenerational conversation about the Independent Living movement.

From their personal journeys and the hard-won progress of past decades to the creativity and challenges of today’s youth, they reflect on what’s changed, what’s at risk, and what must never be forgotten.

Tune in for a dialogue about legacy, activism, and why the fight for freedom, dignity, and self-determination is as urgent as ever.
