Can EVs Be Accessible for Everyone?

In episode 6 of Our World Without Wires. Sanjay welcomes D’Arcee Neal as our guest, D’Arcee is on a mission to make EV charging accessible to everyone. Formerly working at NASA and the Department of labor, he is a fourth-year doctoral candidate at the Ohio State University in English and Disabilities Studies. Born with cerebral palsy, D’Arcee has lived his life in a wheelchair, but it doesn’t define who he is today. As a professional storyteller, he works to tell stories of Afro-phantasmic or black disabled people who exist as phantoms within the community. Most importantly, he believes that the future can and should be accessible to everyone, not just the able-bodied. And wireless power has an important part to play. It’s going to be a great conversation.
