Please understand:
Abled does not mean Enabled.
Disabled does not mean Less Abled.

Disabled or nondisabled, we are all differently-abled.
Stop using it as a euphemism for disabled people.

The notion that disabled people have “special needs” is a product of ableism.
Access and accommodation are not special needs.

Now is the time for the world to realize that how severely disabled persons spend their whole lives.

Wheelchairs are not signs of weakness or incapacity. They do not invalidate. They liberate.

..And if the wheels are big enough, they let us roll right over the haters.

Happy .

Disabled people that work are not superior to disabled people that don’t/can’t work. You’re worthy and valuable no matter what.

Ed Robarts, Father of Independent Living.

Disabled is not negative.
Disabled is not insulting.
Disabled is not devaluing.
Disabled is not pejorative.
Disabled is not demeaning.
Disabled is not disparaging.

Ableism is negative, insulting, devaluing, pejorative, demeaning and disparaging.

Someone should not have to explain their disability to you before you treat them like a person.
