Disability culture is something you are a part of — not something that is happening to you

For John Loeppky, disability culture is exemplified by "moments of validation and connection that allow us to see our identities not just in medical terms, not in terms of what society says we’re lacking, but as a kinship built on shared lived experiences." It shows the world disabled people are "worthy of care and worthy of preservation."
