Hi Dr! I speak to students raging from elementary- to doctorate students in the medical field. I am a paralyzed 33 yr old female living life in a wheelchair 100%. I also have a non profit for activism. If u would like more info please email me at samantha@parafulmission.org!!
We have truly made progress in making society more equalized for the disabled community, I'm glad some of us (advocates) were human enough to not turn a blind eye to our brothers and sisters in need.
Good job to all that contributed. As a disability studies major I have seen a lot of these kinds of documentaries. This RUclips video does a fine job of seamlessly weaving together a lot of important information in a way that is easily understood.

It's sad that people with special needs were locked away in institutions just because they were different from others. I'm glad they don't have those horrible places anymore!
This was great I’m writing an essay and I couldn’t find any information online not even Wikipedia was this helpful it’s sad how hard this much information was to find
We have come a long way, but we still have a long way to go. Lifting the cap on SSI. Getting ready of the marriage penalty for people on SSI. Nothing about us without us! SSI payment and cap hasn’t been raised in 40 years. It’s time for it to be raised.

Its a good little documentary but the focus is more on wheelchair users especially when it comes to activism when fact it took all kind of people with all kinds of disabilies to archive the things we have so far
I hear u on that but that’s the exact opposite of how I feel. Permanent wheelchair users are extremely misrepresented by the ADA. The rules they have for “disabled” GREATLY excludes rights for permanent wheelchair users
Society does not accept disability or differences. As a disabled person, I have been through so much hardship and it is unfair to put it out there that everything is good for us disabled people, when in reality we are the people suffering the hardest. There are disabled people in every group. I think if we focus on helping black disabled people (I have a few ideas), we can change the world in a radical way.
Ellen Sweeney Dear Ellen let's not fight, after all only those who care about us would even be here. Our job is to push further, to keep our civil rights issues Paramount, and not let them institutionalise us.
My niece created this documentary. She is a beautiful, brilliant, compassionate person. The world is a better place with her in it!
Bruce Wilkerson indeed madame she surely is!
#prouduncle
I've used this documentary in my courses at American University for the past 3 years. Yes Bruce, the world IS a better place because of your niece!

The Capital Crawl. I was so moved I cried.
This is a great short documentary. I show it to my college students in my Healthcare and the Law class at the University of Rochester.

MLK is my hero! That phrase is true.
What did the law passed by congress do? Was there anything that changed for accessibility beyond curbs/kerbs for people with wheelchairs?
you kinda took a lot of stuff from my video on the Disability Rights Movement. Not cool. You're lucky this is RUclips.
Ellen Sweeney Do you not know Creative Commons is? Uploading your video to RUclips means you agreed to its terms.

I recently watched utube videos about police abuse of people with disability still going on.
The struggle continues!
We want and demand reparations because we disabled folks are extremely oppressed!!!
I learned this in a class I took this isn’t fair and isn’t right
This actually pisses me off. Because you use some of the same language I did in mine. I'd appreciate a credit at the end at the very least.
she did? my reaction to Brian Letendre stealing your work, ruclips.net/video/dmvXbhzJvd0/видео.html
ooooooh ooh I see so now the other people become handicapped and then they get help... WTF!
This is very sad
ok
