This text contains blatant Ableism and fails to envision an intersectional disability led future. The author asks the reader to embody an identity that focuses on personal interaction, eye contact, listening, discussion and vocal communication. The author failed to include those community members with neuro developmental differences, sensory disabilities, and so many more . We cannot defeat tyranny by leaving communities behind.
