DISABILITY PRIDE MONTH QUOTE 7
Wednesday, July 17, 2024
“It’s a sighted, hearing classroom, in a sighted, hearing school, in a sighted, hearing society. They designed this environment for people who can see and hear. In this environment, I’m disabled. They place the burden on me to step out of my world and reach into theirs.” – Haben Girma, Haben: The Deafblind Woman Who Conquered Harvard Law
