Posted by #SinsInvalid : "We know how to survive
in times of ableist war, in times of hunger.
We feed off of each other’s survival, ...
& become a strong muthafucking force you can’t shake
because even when you think you’ve killed us,
we will always come back…” #MariaPalacios
Just came across a euphemism for disability that I hadn't previously encountered: "able with limitations."
Society tells us "disability" is shameful, making people inclined to avoid the word. But when we avoid it, we're perpetuating shame instead of dismantling it.
