As newly diagnosed as ADHD I am starting to understand how much ableism I have internalised. What a great resource this. If you get a chance @NDSreview please do come to see our BSL and Hearing integrated show. https://t.co/uBtQYXoFlu
We are getting more reports of ableist language used in reviews about disabled acts at the #EdFringe
Last year the most positive reviews went to non-disabled acts creating work about disabled people :S
