Today, March 1st is Disability Day of Mourning. We take this time to remember the disabled people who have been murdered by their parents or caregivers. Too often their lives are seen as the tragedy, not their deaths.

Disabled people are looked upon, not as human, but as burdens, and leeches on society. But we ARE human, and we deserve the right to live with dignity and respect as much as anyone else. Those murdered didn't deserve to die. What was their crime? Being an inconvenience?

One thing that needs to be addressed is the lack of support given to disabled people, including their caregivers. While not justified, some of these murders were committed by those who had been pushed to their breaking point, without any help of any kind. More and more, government support is being stripped away, if it was even there to begin with. We need to hold politicians accountable for how little they care about us. You may not like me bringing politics into this, but being disabled is political. How many of us are on disability? How many of us rely on government supports?

We need to fight. We need to speak up. Make our voices heard over the swaths of non-disabled voices that speak over us. But for today, let us be silent, just for a moment, to mourn those we've lost.
