Malcolm-Jamal Warner and 'The Cosby Show' Made Kids With Learning Disabilities Feel Seen "People still tell me that it’s because of your show that I found out that I had dyslexia," the actor said in an interview.

It was an honor to be interviewed about Malcolm-Jamal Warner, & his portrayal of Theo, who had #dyslexia.

Thank you @meghanholohan.bsky.social for allowing me to speak about the importance of intentional #disability representation.

Got some more new references ready for Artfight, this is a d&d character I haven’t played in ages bc I built her when artificer was still illegal and she is BUSTED especially her gun lmao. She actually has some homebrewed rules I made for her chair #d&dhomebrew #disabledcharacters

For #TheSpecters it was a relationship between a group of friends in a tv show, that spoke to me for some reason. Dedication, understanding, mutual support. Also, the fact that there's not enough #disabledcharacters and #ndcharacters in media.

And it’s awesome to have him effectively disabled in the force with his “uselessness” as a human not being able to utilise the suit to the utmost or handle the large weapons effectively—but he STILL can help! There’s still things he can do! Effing love it, fellas

Slums and rubble stones in the foreground with a mountain over a lake in the distance. A pattern in the sand. Dusted shoes. Hole in the iced surface of a lake with forest in the distance. Transmission mast on the background of a clouded sky with sun peaking through. Rocky mountain saddle. Dirt road in the forest with tittle written in black letters: Black Wings, WIP by T. Lane.

If you are a screenwriter writing characters of people with disabilities and you do not consult, as part of your research, people who live with that disability, you are not committed to diversity.
