A proposito di questo titolo
In the debut episode of Remaking Normal, filmmaker, writer, musician, and disability advocate Alexander Freeman takes listeners on a powerful journey through the origins and evolution of one of society’s most dangerous and misunderstood words: normal.With his signature blend of personal reflection, history, and empathy, Alexander explores how the concept of “normal” was never just about averages — it became a tool of power, exclusion, and control. Drawing from research by Adolphe Quetelet, Lennard J. Davis, and others, he unpacks how scientific ideals shaped social hierarchies, from eugenics movements to modern systems of bias that still affect marginalized communities today.
