UNIVERSAL DESIGN IS THE PATH TO ACHIEVING IT
Disability discrimination is called ableism.
Ableism is devaluing a person with a disability because
they are disabled. It is exactly like racism, which devalues on skin color and
culture.
Both are indefensible and sometimes lethal.
It can be as simple as sidewalks.
If a city fails to maintain broken sidewalks and
fill in missing parts, a person with a disability is forced to go out into the
street to continue their journey to a transit station.
Pedestrian deaths are almost constantly on the rise,
so putting more people into danger’s path is very bad planning.
