#Sanremo, un incubatore di #abilismo. Un luogo dove le persone #disabilizzate vengono citate come esempio non per le loro competenze, ma perché hanno il coraggio di esistere "nonostante la #disabilità.
Questo, come direbbe l'attivista #StellaYoung, è #InspirationPorn

From the wheelchair-using Black Panther to the ‘cripple suffragette’ – 10 heroes of the disabled rights movement

Brad Lomax in the US, Rosa May Billinghurst in the UK, Javed Abid in India … these are the men and women I wish I had known about as a disabled child
