#embraceourdifferences

[davidwfloydart]

Hopefully all “different” children find adults capable of welcoming them for who they are and not for what they lack. Long live the differences, the little black sheep and the misunderstood. They are the ones who create beauty in this world. #misunderstood #differentlook #differencesmakethedifference #blacksheepsquad #different #embraceourdifferences (at Catalina Foothills, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjOKCsGJBauW0Ohueb17RRe04XspJ57eCUQwhM0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

ILL-ABILITIES Crew

The Ill-abilities crew is "an all-star team of differently-abled dancers whose goal was to compete in the breakdance competition circuit, showing the world that anything is possible. Their mission is to help redefine society’s view of disability by empowering individuals to live life with limitless possibilities through positive interaction within communities worldwide." I choose this source because the message is empowering for all different types of abilities, promoting limitless possibility. 

Context:

The crew is showcasing their differences and embracing those differences through hip hop dance in the video. 

Each member of the crew has a different disability, visible and non visible. In the text of the youtube video each crew member has a crew name stated, where they are from, and what their disability is. Each has a link to where you can find them on facebook or their own website.

The important social context of this crew and video is through their mission to redefine society’s view of disability. Ableism is a term for discrimination in favor of able-bodied people. A lot of our society has had or has a ableist view. Hip hop dance is a style of dance that is embracing freedom of expression through movement which is exactly what this crew is also doing in the video. 

The crew’s background is not important in this video, just an empty mall or building of some sort. The dancers are showcasing that they are breaking that ableist viewpoint barrier and conquering the limitations of what the disabled body can do in comparison to what the “able” bodied break dancers can do.

To travel is to face the unknown 🌍The moment we lose ourselves is the same moment we find ourselves. TRAVEL, for me, is abandoning everything I’ve ever known and living like someone else. To understand and embrace our differences as human beings by culturally immersing ourselves is what, I believe, will open our eyes to peace ✌🏼Put yourself in someone else’s shoes with an open mind, a loving heart, and childlike vulnerability. #neverstopexploring #eyeswideopen #vulnerabilityisstrength #embraceourdifferences (at Haleakalā National Park)

Right and wrong is irrelevant when you understand we each have our own way of doing things. There's so much diversity in humanity and how we decide to do things that trying to categorize right and wrong becomes irrelevant. There's dark and light and we all have that balance within us.
