View Sources
Todays’ Radical Disability Activists have set a new definition of disability to unite the complex, dynamic, and multidimensional disability community. The new definition is a way toward respect, equity, and access for Disabled folks.
Disability is defined simply as:
those who are externally identified as Disabled and those who self-identify as Disabled.
