DRC's Public Policy Intern and fierce hard of hearing national advocate Tremmel Watson recently traveled to the Association of Late Deafened Adults (ALDA) Convention in Denver, Colorado. There, Tremmel had the opportunity to meet Howard Rosenblum, who is currently running for the U.S. House to represent Illinois's 9th Congressional District. Rosenblum is aiming to become the first Deaf member of Congress. It was a great chance for the two to meet and connect!

Disability justice begins where inclusion ends.

If you're autistic and say, "I'm not disabled," we need to talk.

Because that distance you're keeping? It's not safety, it's assimilation that will cost you and all of us long term.

For years, I avoided the word disabled. I thought it would shrink me, limit me, define me. But accepting my disabled identity didn't make me smaller.

It freed me.

It gave language to:

→ The burnout I couldn't explain

→ The sensory overload others dismissed

→ Why I could teach inclusion yet collapse under its design

Here's what I learned:

Disability isn't the opposite of capability.

It's context, the reminder that we're disabled by inaccessible environments, not by broken bodies.

We can't keep rebranding survival as empowerment while leaving behind those who can't mask.
✊🏽Liberation begins with language. When you name yourself factually as disabled, you remove the power of those who weaponize the term against you and make others see you and provide the support we all deserve.

We are not failed versions of normal. We are proof that normal was never the goal.

In my new essay "If You're Autistic, You Are Disabled," I unpack:

The myth of "autistic but not disabled"

How internalised ableism costs us community

Why both social and medical models of disability matter

The eugenic roots of functioning labels

How race and privilege shape who gets believed and diagnosed

This is the conversation we're still avoiding.

Inclusion is more than access-it's belonging.

It's when classrooms, offices and communities make space for everyone's story. Small changes lead to big impact. Let's build environments where every person can thrive.

What's one small way you've seen inclusion in action?

How do you help make people feel they belong?

Share in the comments your answers. We'd love to hear from you!

Representation reshapes how society sees disability and rare disease. It replaces pity with pride, stereotypes with strength, and isolation with connection. Together, we can tell a new story-one of inclusion, equity and hope.

What word would you use to describe the disability and rare disease community?

How can we continue changing the narrative together?

Share in the comments your answers. We'd love to hear from you!
