Can Do

Date: February 3, 2002
Author: Michael Bérubé
QUOTE: ...the extraordinary instability of disability is both a promise and a threat: it can give shelter and solace to people with mental illness just as easily as it can consign people with high blood pressure or mild cerebral palsy to a stigmatized identity with which they do not want to identify.

ABSTRACT: Points out the extremely subjective and ever-changing nature of disability as a concept, something which makes it very hard to legislate for and even define. BÉRUBÉ warns that the topic hits close to home, as essentially all of us will be disabled at one time or another.
