This Manifesto stands as a powerful declaration of creative resistance and protest, serving as an enlightening guide for individuals, both with and without disabilities. Its purpose is to ignite awareness and empower not only one's own disabled identity but also to uplift the disabled and neurodivergent members of our community, particularly students. Let this manifesto be a beacon of education, sparking a collective effort to foster inclusivity and support for every unique mind and body. Together, we rise in solidarity, embracing diversity as our greatest strength.
As my Neurodiverent friend and educator, Lydia Z. Brown states:
Ableism is an entire way of thinking and doing that harms disabled people by treating some types of bodies and minds as valuable, worthy, and desirable, and others as undesirable and unworthy. Ableism is embedded in legal, social, and political institutions, as well as in commonly accepted and unquestioned attitudes and assumptions.
