- In many parts of the world, persons with disabilities continue to face abuse, neglect, and oppression. They lack access to education, access to justice. Sometimes, they may not even realize their human rights are violated. Why? Because they have not known any better.
The Open Society Foundations work to address the discriminatory laws, practices, and attitudes that hinder full equality and to empower those working toward the full inclusion of persons with disabilities into their communities. In this video, George Soros, disability rights activists, and others discuss how the universal rights approach means a more just world for all.

This makes me disgusted. People with disabilities should be treated equally and reelected, fairly, kindly like everyone else. That includes education, safety/security, etc. No matter what the severity to slightest degree of disability really is. I have borderline/mild General learning Disability, ADD/ADHD and bipolar depression including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Some people who tried to treat me like trash or nothing they will be treated the same. Because I happen to be bright and well fortunate. Very rare that one with disabilities could be break down onery and mean toward a coward who mistreats those with disabilities.
Don't forget that people with disabilities are the poorest of the poor, regardless of skin color or ethnic background. 70% to 83% of blind and visually impaired folks are unemployed and 1 in 4 blind and visually impaired folks are currently homeless, due to employment and housing discrimination. People with disabilities, especially the blind and visually impaired groups face the highest rates of unemployment and homelessness. When it comes to diversity in the workplace, people with disabilities are the group that's never included in the equation. We are always left out. People with disabilities constantly face overt and covert discrimination, when it comes to getting a job, regardless of education level.
We all face barriers. Inequality shouldn't be one of them. #disability
Yeah, I don't want men coming up to me, thinking they can take advantage of me. I don't need people like Vin Diesel taking my money and taking credit off of my film project. I don't need people to tell me what I need to do. I do have value. Just because I can't hear well or talk well or don't look normal... don't mean I am not a human being. I don't have to have a voice... I don't need to be heard. If people violated me, I violated them back.
We will never treated right 😞we are denied by our world we are born in.
Hello,
Am I the only one asking in Alberta, Canada, "Why are my Human Rights dependent on the status of my service dog."
We 'must' stop this silent war on people with disabilities. If we as a society do not question why are we restricting people's human rights, it may be your rights that are denied next.
The good solution is people or organizations invest for a company that works for profits and only employs disabled
We want and demand reparations because people with disabilities are extremely oppressed!!!
system is FUCKED
