Next week Joe Biden will be inaugurated as the 46th President of the United States. He will also become the first president to have a stammer. It’s a condition that affects around 71 million people worldwide.
BBC shares three testimonials of people who stutter: Shelby, 11 year-old boy with a strong personality, Ed Balls, former Labour MP and Secretary of State of Education, and Felicity Baker, a BBC producer.
