Abstract

Video-sharing platforms such as Youtube are increasingly used by people with disabilities (PWDs) to share their experiences and concerns in their lives. However, there is no systematic examination of how and why YouTubers disclose their challenges publicly on YouTube. This poster presents a preliminary analysis of 257 video clips made by YouTubers with disabilities. The most common disclosed difficulties are related to social support and societal attitudes. PWDs also use YouTube to share knowledge about accessibility and advocate for public changes.
