On the big and small screen right now, several high-profile productions focus on differences. From physical disabilities to being accepted within a separate culture, there is a lot of difference going on in pop culture.

Here’s why you will want to watch: Ben explains how Me Before You devalues the lives of people with disabilities; and Mark outlines why ABC TV series Cleverman is, um, a clever challenge to prejudice, fear and social division.
