Sharing "This Is What Disability Looks Like"

All, here's a short plug for the excellent campaign "This Is What Disability Looks Like" by Bethany Stevens. An extensive interview with Bethany is available at Bitch Media. Below is an excerpt from that interview:

Positive representations of PWDs (People with disabilities) are hard to come by. Pitiful, gloomy loners or the excessively plucky supercrip 'overcoming' a disability to inspire nondisabled counterparts are de rigueur in the media’s unrealistic portrayals of the disability experience. Attempting to find reasonably authentic TV/film characters with disabilities is a challenging and alienating task—one that often leaves [us] staring at [our] screens, exasperated, wondering, 'Why doesn’t anyone ever look/act like [us]?!'
