In honor of Disability Pride Month, The Sidebar's JEWEL BENTON interviews journalist TYRESE ALLEYNE-DAVIS for a conversation about journalism, adaptive sports, representation, and perseverance. While Tyrese is not defined by his disability, he is adding to the representation of disabled journalists and storytellers in media. He also shares why networking, community, mentorship, and documenting his journey through YouTube remain meaningful parts of his path.
