Ryan O’Connell, the creator and star of Netflix show Special, paid tribute to everyone who was “born into a world that wasn’t built for them” at TIME 100 Next on Thursday night. In a profanity-laced speech, O’Connell declared, “We’re throwing out the old world. Together we’re building a new one.” One that’s both “chic” and “handicap accessible,” he vowed. O’Connell has changed the conversation about disability with Special — for audiences and for writers and directors behind the scenes.
