The Disability Rights Movement [CC]

Disability history is one of those things I feel like I should know about but also definitely don't. So today we're gonna learn the things that they don't teach you in your middle school history class (even though they should). Turns out disability history is a lot more interesting than I thought!

Hello my dears!
My name is Sydney and I’m an actress/singer-songwriter who writes music about my experiences being autistic, disabled, gay, and in general, a human. My goal is to fill musical gaps and write about things people often forget to make music about. I’m also a vintage enthusiast and disability advocate (among other things). I’ve now released 3 albums and, most importantly, my favorite color is buttercup yellow.

Ok I like Crip Camp . But it’s important to recognize that it has Black & Queer Disabled Erasure. The Black Panthers Didn’t just bring food. They helped organize big parts of sit in & protest . Leroy Moore has article on this . Anita Cameron is a brilliant Black Disabled Queer advocate who has been at both Capital crawl & ACA protests just to name a few. Disabled history is important but we need to address our own prejudices within too🏳️‍🌈♿️🏳️‍⚧️

Schools really should teach about disabled history. Like instead of reading the same exact Holocaust work for a month for every year of highschool maybe remove one of those years to have a week on disability history, or even just remove a single day and talk about what happened to disabled people during the Holocaust 😭
Like before I watched this video I barely knew any of this happened and the few that I've heard of was just from other advocates and not from school

Thank you. This was so interesting and I don't think I'd have ever looked into it.
