Disability Justice
“People usually think of disability as an individual flaw or problem, rather than as something partly created by the world we live in. It is rare that that people think of disability as a political experience or as encompassing a community full of rich histories, cultures or legacies. With disability justice, we want to move away from “the myth of independence” that everyone can and should be able to do everything on their own”
