Kelli Jean Drinkwater, a TED Speaker, said people who refuse to believe that living in the fat bodies is a barrier to anything. She learned from her experience that fat bodies are inherently political, and unapologetic fat bodies can blow people's minds. Nevertheless She did count of how many times people of all sizes have told her that the show has changed their lives, how it helped them shift their relationship to their own and other people's bodies, and how it made them confront their own bias. She mentioned that she received violent death threats and abuse for daring to make work that centers fat people's bodies and lives and treats us as worthwhile human beings with valuable stories to tell.
