The Disability Pride Movement on TikTok
When I wake up in the morning, the first thing I do is look in the mirror. I see surgical scars. They're scars resulting from cancer, a dual heart, and kidney transplant. All of my health issues have left me disabled, but I'm not alone. I am one of 65 million people with disabilities in this country. We are the nation's largest minority. Yet, we have the least representation in all facets of society. This is never more strongly felt than in the entertainment industry.
