I’m not remarkable!

So many people who live with a disability are considered outstanding for what we can do, “even” with our limitations.

I, (and others who speak on this topic), agree that we can accomplish a lot even with our apparent limitations. This has more to do with our drive to live fully in a world of possibilities. There is a certain level of creativity that knows no bounds and a determination to achieve one’s goals. From this has grown a thriving disability culture.

It’s not about being remarkable- it is about being a part of this large, diverse world. It’s about bringing all of our creative ways into the big mix to make a stronger, more vibrant community for all.

Thank you, Apple, and all the students/family/friends who made this video possible. And a big thanks to Andrew Pulrang, who shared it on his recent blog.
