What Candace Owens Needs to Understand About Her Ableist Comments
I am a biracial writer with multiple disabilities and a disability advocate. I always tend to look for disability inclusion in whatever ways I can find it. It could be in television, movies, clothing campaigns, etc. Why does this matter to me, and why do I look for and crave it? Growing up, I didn’t see disability representation anywhere, and I want future generations to have it in ways that I didn’t. They deserve to see themselves in a wide array of diverse representations in media. However, some people, such as right-wing conservative Candace Owens, disagree and think society has taken it too far, as she recently said.
