July is disability pride month!!
This was started because The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was passed on July 26, 1990, to prohibit discrimination against people with disabilities. Following this legislation, Boston held the first Disability Pride Day event i n July 1990 and Disability Pride Month was born.
We still have a long ways to go in equality in the disabled community, as people and the government are still ableist and rude most days.
To celebrate this month consider:
- looking into ableism (and not being ableist!)
- donating to charities who give back to the disabled community
- going to disability pride month events, if you have any around you
- watching movies featuring disabled people
- researching the struggles of disabled people and other ways to help them
- Getting the word out about disability pride month!
