I absolutely love how you framed this and got into the complexity of this topic. I feel like I've had trouble communicating to other people how I could find pride in my disabilities because of how much I've struggled and how much other disabled people struggle, but I feel like you voiced really well what the importance of it is even in the face of terrible experiences. Shame in disability is really hard to get through, and I'm glad I got exposed to the disabled community early in my life to start hearing these conversations, it's really helped me as I've discovered more about my own disabilities and health issues. I think even in the autistic community there's been a struggle with this in regards to autistic people who have more or less struggles with practical skills and independance. At the end of the day I think dealing with internalized ableism and shame around disability is still important even in cases where we may want cures or treatments or improved health, and disability pride is a key step in that. Thank you so much for sharing, this is an incredible video, and I super appreciate your work on disability topics.

@@disabledconstellation do you know what's the difference between the normal version and the version that is "adapted for young adults"?
