Things People With Disabilities Wish You Knew - Duration: 4:58.- I so often hear people send the message
like thank God that's not me when they see
someone with a disability or like
thank God that's not me or my kid.
And that's sending the message that
disability is equal to someone who is less than
or broken or incomplete and that's not the case.
(upbeat music)
- I have Cerebral Palsy.
It affects me pretty much from the hips down
and also just like fine motor control and things like that.
- So I have Tourette Syndrome which is
a neurological disorder which means I do
movements and noises that I can't control.
- I have Cerebral Palsy as well left Hemiparesis
and Nystagmus which means that my whole
left side is weaker than my rights.
- I have a very aggressive form for Lupus.
And I have a blood clotting disorder associated
with my Lupus and four years ago I had a clot in my foot.
And then this happened and over eight months
and 11 surgeries, this was the end.
(upbeat music)
- I...
love having Tourette's.
I love that I'm four foot, seven.
I love my obsessive compulsive disorder.
And I think that's the case that many of us
have embraced our disabilities.
- I've had my disabilities since I was born
and it's a part me.
- My brain is quick and witty and wildly inappropriate.
And it also has Tourette's and at some point
I decided not to just love parts of my brain.
(upbeat music)
A lot of times I see kids staring at me.
That's OK with me.
- I welcome it, kids are curious.
- But what I struggle with is when a parent
shushes them or quickly pulls them in the other direction.
- When a child is hustled away from a person
or hushed, it stigmatizes even just asking the question.
- Because kids then associate disability
with feeling ashamed.
- If they've never seen anything like this before
they're gonna look and if they questions let them ask.
There's nothing wrong with that.
- So instead I hope that parents say things like:
How cool that we all move differently
and walk differently and talk differently.
More than just like normalizing disability
but celebrating it.
We date, people with disabilities date!
And not always other people with disabilities.
- Just because I have I disability doesn't
mean I have to be paired with somebody with a disability.
- Direct message to everyone in my life
but if you're gonna set me up on a blind date
please have more criteria than
this guy also has a disability.
(upbeat music)
- Not every single person with a disability
is in a wheelchair.
I am not in a wheelchair.
I've never been in a wheelchair.
(upbeat music)
- If one more person calls me an inspiration
after just meeting me, I'm gonna burn your house down.
- We aren't inherently inspirational or brave
because we are disabled.
We're just kind of the idea that people
think about what when they say that.
- It's OK to call me an inspiration once you know me.
Or know something about me.
But genetics does not make me an inspiration.
Let me earn that word.
- There are people who are actually doing
amazing, brave things out there.
Whether they have a disability or not.
- But it comes across to a disabled person as:
wow I'm so happy that I'm not in your shoes.
(upbeat music)
- I get a lot of strangers trying to help me.
Up the steps by grabbing my arm or my waste or something.
And that's extremely inappropriate.
- You can say hey do you need some help?
Rather than just either forcing my chair or ignoring me.
(upbeat music)
It took me awhile to actually call myself
a person with a disability.
But I'm a person first.
Being an amputee is secondary.
- I rather have somebody say I'm a person with a disability
rather than being disabled because of the
whole control and ownership issue.
- I hear differently abled.
The word is disability.
- They used to call myself like differently abled
and some people didn't like that.
And I'm just like, but I am different
and their like no you're not
and it took me awhile to actually see
that I was using very able-bodied terms.
- It should be a descriptor.
Just like I'm right-handed, I have a disability.
(upbeat music)
When we're talking about disabilities I hear
the word that we wanna be accommodating, which is great.
Or we're working on tolerance.
Nobody wants to just be tolerated.
Like I tolerated those three years my sister
was learning to play the trombone.
I tolerate going to the dentist.
None of these things are things I like,
they're things I tolerate
because I know that I have to deal with.
So there's such an important step in communities
between opening the door to somebody with a disability
and like embracing them
and building a community with them in mind.

Plastic-less Video 5: The Office - Duration: 4:56.Welcome to this video that explores my personal interaction with plastic during
my business life, here in my office.
I had hoped that after my initial confession about my addiction to plastic
or as I described it at the time a "love-hate" relationship.
I had hoped that I could exemplify a plastic-less office.
Certainly, there is a very clear demonstration that this office is going plastic-less
We prepare all of our hot drinks; teas coffees and hot chocolates using reusable mugs
and all of our lunches and snacks are prepared on the premises,
without having to go to supermarkets and buy plastic clad sandwiches.
Certainly, the office equipment that we have our computers are very much enclosed in metal bodies,
particularly the Macintosh that we have which is in an aluminium body,
which certainly gets a high recyclability rating for its subsequent reuse after at the end of its life.
The pen holders that we have on our desks or our waste paper basket, all those items, are made of metal.
The office, also, uses other plastic-less items, such as wooden rulers and pencils.
When you look around the office, you can see some further evidence of plastic items,
such as the durable items; of the computer screen behind me and the laser printer
These items are going to be used in the office for a number of years
and when it comes to the time to recycle them we will make sure that they are recycled in
accordance with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations, the WEEE Regulations.
And that we will be looking for replacement items with a higher content of other materials.
However, you can also see evidence of some plastic items such as some of our folders and binders
Maybe, we need to look a little bit more closely some of those options.
Some of the smaller items in the office, such as pens are very much made of plastic with some metal components.
So there's an opportunity to improve on our plastic-less use of writing equipment.
One item of plastic that I think almost all offices struggle with is the humble cartridge
Whether it's the laser cartridge, like this one or an inkjet cartridge, they're made of plastic.
They are used for several weeks, or maybe several months, and then when they're finished with
these single-use items are then disposed of.
We ensure that these cartridges are sent to a company, that can re-engineer then fill them with fresh toner,
so that they can be used for a second or subsequent time.
So in conclusion, I think many of us are going to be struggling to be able to make our offices "go totally plastic-less".
In the light of some of the durable items that I've mentioned in this video and
also, the toner cartridges which are the most prevalent single-use items in an office nowadays.
And it'll be interesting to see whether manufacturers can be innovative in finding new materials to replace
the plastic content of those toner cartridges.
And maybe I wouldn't want to make the office totally plastic-less otherwise this little Lego chap here wouldn't have a home.
So let's make sure there's at least a small part of the office that is not totally plastic-less.
If you've been inspired by this video to "go Plastic-less", why not try these great action points.

Plastic-less Video 4: A Hot Chocolate Moment - Duration: 2:27.Over five billion disposable cups used every year which equates to 300,000 tonnes of waste
which is 0.1% of the UK waste arisings.
We need to do something about our addiction to disposable cups.
Let's see what the options are for going plastic-less.
For me, it's hot chocolate.
I've taken the time out this afternoon to drink in and relax on my way to a client meeting.
I could have grabbed a takeaway disposable cup
but I wanted to make a conscious decision to go plastic-less.
Here are the two alternatives; A disposable takeaway cup or a china cup
The disposable cup features a plastic lid, which can be recycled.
However, it's a different story when it comes to the bod.
The body is made of composite materials and can be difficult to recycle.
Finally, a disposable cup hints at a heavy, busy lifestyle.
The china cup equivalent is reusable and it's much more comfortable to drink from.
Plus you get a chance to relax away from that heavy, busy lifestyle and to enjoy your drink.
So, next time you want to grab a hot drink...
Why not take the plastic-less option and enjoy a relaxing time in the coffee shop
and go plastic-less at the same time.
If you've been inspired by this video to go plastic-less, why not try these great action points.
