I write @DisDebrief to put a “disability lens” on world news. For me this means connecting lived experience with wider issues of policy and activism. See more about what I mean: disabilitydebrief.org/debrie… #AXSChat

The root cause of unemployment among disabled is the belief that disabilities are defects. Also the misguided notion … when a candidate does not fit the mainstream idea of how a disabled person appears. And so people with mental illnesses & invisible disabilities are rejected.
