Listen "society vs disability"
Episode Synopsis
- The speaker discusses the societal challenges faced by individuals with disabilities, emphasizing that the most significant obstacles are socially imposed and invisible.- These barriers create a sense of confinement and inhibit freedom, shaped by society's conditioned responses.- Reactions from others, whether overly sympathetic or begrudging, force individuals into a box they did not choose, affecting their perception and interaction with the world.- Society often misunderstands or underestimates the inner lives, dreams, and contributions of people with disabilities, viewing them through a limited, medical lens.- The true disability is societal failure to see individuals as whole, deserving of dignity and respect, leading to ongoing invisible oppression that impacts every aspect of life.
