The Disability Rights Movement Needs to Be More Inclusive
With the anniversary of the Americans With Disabilities Act, a lot of disabled people are in an odd position. We’re supposed to be celebrating legislation that’s supposed to ensure accessibility. It’s kind of America’s way of saying “look at what we (able-bodied/neurotypical people) have done for you as a disabled person.” Then we are supposed to clap and cry, or something. However, a lot of people who aren’t in our community don’t understand the ADA.

Why We Still Seek Acceptance As People With Disabilities 30 Years After the ADA
I’ve often dreamed of 24 hours of a disability-free life for my boys. Some days, I become greedier; I want a week! A month and maybe even a year! During this time, I’d watch them run in the backyard and kick a ball and climb a tree. The world would not be big enough to contain the two. I’d watch them ride a bike, break out in dance, and most certainly take a leap off a high bridge. I’d join them too — play football and run across the beach just for the heck of it!

If you don’t know, Disability Pride Month was first observed in 1990 and has recently become celebrated with parades and festivals around the country. The purpose of Disability Pride Month is to honor everyone’s differences and uniqueness by raising awareness and breaking stigmas, and make people with disabilities visible in all communities.

When I Realized Disability Pride Month Is for Me
July is Disability Pride Month. I’ve been back and forth on wanting to write anything. I have never seen my disability as something that makes me consistently and physically proud. At least the act of showing it. Since my identity has been visible my entire life, being proud of constantly overcoming has often been viewed by society as less than, or even inspiration porn. These ideas have left me with negative and exhausting perceptions of myself and sometimes questioning the trustworthiness of people loving all that I am.

The Next ADA: The Rights Americans With Disabilities Still Need to Thrive
July 2020 marks the 30th anniversary of the Americans With Disabilities Act. I can still remember watching George Bush, Sr. sign it into law on TV. I was in middle school, and my mother was a local disability activist, trying to improve accessibility and inclusion in our small college town. We were both so hopeful about the future and what my life would be like in an inclusive world. I could never have imagined what the next three decades would hold for me: graduating from Stanford University, losing my mom to cancer, moving around the country pursuing my goals, surviving abuse, finding a rewarding career here at The Mighty, and now reflecting on the past 30 years as my life hangs in the balance during a global pandemic.
