    Not only were the Bansals’ tickets upgraded to business class but the original rates at which the tickets were purchased were cheaper than what other fellow travellers paid for them.

    "Stop calling disabled people anything but disabled"

    Stop calling disabled people anything but disabled. This is the term they self identify with. It's the same as Dalits - that's the term they self identify so you should not call them Harijans. Let's focus our attention on removing environmental & attitudinal barriers in +/

    Fantastic 🧵. Really, once you see this way of conceptualizing disability, you can't unsee it. Also explains why designing environments that are disability-friendly means designing environments that are friendly for everyone.

    the disability not in the person but in the environment. So a blind person may have an impairment with their eyesight, but that is not the cause of their disability. They are disabled bcoz society has created an environment which prevents then from fully participating..+/

    I had to read this thread out to my children. Please do read n share. ✨

    So why does the disabled community insist on being called 'disabled persons' and reject all alternative terminologies? Short thread. This is not just about language, but is more fundamental than that. It goes into how you conceptualize & understand disability. Intrigued?...

    The Buffalo shooter's manifesto focuses on "White birth rates." The Supreme Court's opinion overturning Roe cites the "domestic supply of infants." This is not a coincidence.

    My claim - Descendants of only those erstwhile princely states that collaborated with the Mughals and subsequently the British are holding political powers today. Only their palaces are still standing on the ground and are tourist attractions. Please cite an exception.

    When we hear BJP leader Diya Kumari's claim about the Taj Mahal standing on her family's ancestral land, we must ask how the Kachhwahas came to be in possession of that plot of premium real estate. Who was Mirza Raja Jai Singh? A top-ranking Mughal mansabdar.

    Imp. thread. As chief editor of a tech publishing group, I was convinced about this by friend and disability activist Javed Abidi, who also asked me to use DISABLED in our publications house style. Javed and his did seminal work in and for disability rights.
