“Awareness” Is Sooo Yesterday, Man. All The Cool Kids Are Leveling Up, You Should Try It.

I'm seeing the "Happy disability pride month to physically disabled people only" posts being shared around, and I want you to know that you are actually the problem.

little poll

im reblogging bc ppl who say that is so stupid, like no i don't like being acutely aware of every noise and texture around me

very fascinated by people who think autism is some hip-happenin’ bandwagon thing to have suddenly when it didn’t ever make me cool in the slightest? it just made me able to hear lightbulbs and have panic attacks over trying to call people on the phone

ITS SO SILLY>>>>..

Every person need to be taught disability history

Not the “oh Einstein was probably autistic” or the sanitized Helen Keller story. but this history disabled people have made and has been made for us.

Teach them about Carrie Buck, who was sterilized against her will, sued in 1927, and lost because “Three generations of imbeciles [were] enough.”

Teach them about Judith Heumann and her associates, who in 1977, held the longest sit in a government building for the enactment of 504 protection passed three years earlier.

Teach them about all the Baby Does, newborns in 1980s who were born disabled and who doctors left to die without treatment, who’s deaths lead to the passing of The Baby Doe amendment to the child abuse law in 1984.

Teach them about the deaf students at Gallaudet University, a liberal arts school for the deaf, who in 1988, protested the appointment of yet another hearing president and successfully elected I. King Jordan as their first deaf president.

Teach them about Jim Sinclair, who at the 1993 international Autism Conference stood and said “don’t mourn for us. We are alive. We are real. And we’re here waiting for you.”

Teach about the disability activists who laid down in front of buses for accessible transit in 1978, crawled up the steps of congress in 1990 for the ADA, and fight against police brutality, poverty, restricted access to medical care, and abuse today.

Teach about us.

i drop it in soften but not often (unless stuttering)

PLEASE reblog, I have heard it on a couple of podcasts now and I'm genuinely curious how common it is! Also, if you feel comfortable with it, let me know what your accent normally is (Midwestern, Southern, New Englander, New Yorker, Minnesotan, whatever).

shout out to people with spatial awareness issues. wishing you a "didn't bump into any table corners or walls" day today!
