In the first episode of August’s Purposely Broken World, Kevin brings up disability pride and what it means to him. Faith plays a significant role in Kevin’s disability Identity. Kevin recounts personal stories of discrimination.
Disability history is American history. Judy Humann, Brad Lomax, and the 504 sit-ins should be taught in schools. Financial discrimination and disability discrimination are still prevalent in today’s America. Feel free to join the conversation.
