Accessibility

the historical origin of disability was “anything that kept people from participating in labor”).

The world actively dis-ables people by failing to provide accommodations they need.

presume everyone, regardless of an identified disability, is competent.

Could we envision a possible future where disability itself isn’t something considered separately?

people with cognitive and physical differences have the worst life outcomes, as measured by employment, wages, and education achievement, of any minority group in the world.

Most disabled people are not allowed to immigrate to become a citizen in other nations.6 Disability automatically casts you as a burden, making you ineligible for permanent citizenship or residency in many countries.

I feel a little bitter that most non-disabled people do not have this dilemma of whether they will exchange their privacy to be seen as human.
