Margot Cole is appreciated by many, either directly and affectionately by those who know her personally, or indirectly by how her message resonates for people who face extraordinary challenges in managing their everyday tasks. Cole’s understanding of the disability process for many living with the constant struggle to overcome huge obstacles is reflected in the video, “Crips Not Creeps”.
Her insights as creator and director express the reality of many with special needs who are viewed for their differences by a public that evades seeing shared similarities. Her very clever video presentation also depicts another kind of disability-a disability of the mind that some people with physical handicaps might also have. When one of her main characters, acting from jealousy, resorts to seeking revenge against his rival (who must then defend himself against a false accusation) Cole skillfully brings into focus the far reaching consequences that such personal harassment can have.
As a young independent film director and author, Margot Cole has a very promising future: her message expresses riveting truths that affect us all.
