Quote: Tasmania Disability Lobby July 22 at 6:19pm · .. we never use the term “people with A disability”. We use the term, people living with disability. Disability in this sense supports what academics call, ‘the social model of disability’. This is a ‘rights-based’ agenda. Therefore, to make it simple – disability is not something individuals have. What individuals have are body function limitations (or extraordinariness!). “Disability” is a process. The process of legislation, law-making, policy formulation, which forgets to include those of us with illness or body function limitations. ‘Disability’ is the racism in policy – whereby one group who design the world we live in, forget to include those with illness or body differences.
