We were all unique for the times: We were disabled and we’d gone to college. We’d challenged the system that said how we had to be taken care of and had turned it on its head. We weren’t ashamed of who we were and what we needed and we were no longer willing to let charity organizations, focused on finding a “cure,” speak for us. Each working in our own respective countries, together we pushed to change the conversation to one of equality and rights instead of cures.
