Katie Ledecky has more 🏅 than any other US female athlete.
She also has a chronic illness.
She waited 9 yrs to share because she was worried people would think "something was wrong" with her.
#Ableism strikes again.
We need to #NormalizeDisability.

Why can we not write children’s books with disabled characters that aren’t Inspiration Porn Lite ™?
Between this and the no children’s books about self advocacy including your chair as part of your body, I’m super tempted to start writing some myself.

Thirty-two years ago today, ADA was passed. It was the world’s first comprehensive declaration of equality for people with disabilities.
We acknowledge we have so much further to go to ensure ALL disabled people have the health care, education & inclusion.

You may not see access barriers if you don’t need them (I know, I've been there), but my god, once you see how inaccessible the whole friggin' world is, you really can't unsee it.
