Disability Language<\/h2>\n

Director Reid Davenport:<\/h3>\n

\u25cf I, along with many other disabled people, identify with \u201cdisability\u201d (and all its iterations) as a political identity. The reasoning behind this is that disability is a social construct, rather than a medical phenomenon. Along the same lines, I do not identify with a medical diagnosis. You will not see a named medical diagnosis in any materials released from the film team.
\n\u25cf When using disabled, people wonder whether they should say \u201cpeople with disabilities\u201d or \u201cdisabled people.\u201d Both are valid. My rule of thumb is for non-disabled people to refer, when appropriate, to someone as a person with a disability unless asked by that person to use other language (i.e. disabled person).
\n\u25cf Stick to the word \u201cdisability\u201d and its iterations when relevant. Other terms like differently-abled, special needs, handicapable, impaired, limited, wheelchair-bound are problematic.
\n\u25cf When sharing and publishing media from the film, please use image identifications for people who are blind or low-vision. You can see examples throughout the film\u2019s social media.
\n\u25cf Framing disabled people as inspiring, courageous, etc. is dehumanizing and othering. The media at large has perpetuated these storylines to the detriment of disabled people.
\n\u25cf A line in the film that ended up on the editing floor was \u201cI\u2019m sick of people telling me that I have a unique perspective.\u201d This idea of uniqueness equivocates ableism (\u201coh, I didn\u2019t know that because I\u2019m unfamiliar\u201d), others, and devalues my work as a product of utilitarian considerations rather than artistic skill.
\n\u25cf Family-members and those involved in disabled lives are overly represented and usually used as reference-points, if not proxies, to disabled people. It is important that disabled people have agency and represent themselves.
\nBelow, please find additional easy-reference guidelines regarding terms to use while writing about I DIDN\u2019T SEE YOU THERE. These guidelines are courtesy of the National Center on Disability and Journalism (NCDJ).<\/p>\n

Able Bodied<\/strong><\/p>\n

Background: This term is used to describe someone who does not identify as having a disability. Some members of the disability community oppose its use because it implies that all people with disabilities lack \u201cable bodies\u201d or the ability to use their bodies well. They may prefer \u201cnon-disabled\u201d or \u201cenabled\u201d as being more accurate.
\nNCDJ Recommendation: The term \u201cnon-disabled,\u201d and the phrases \u201cdoes not have a disability\u201d or \u201cis not living with a disability\u201d are more neutral choices. \u201cAble-bodied\u201d is an appropriate term to use in some cases, such as when referring to government reports on the proportion of able-bodied members in the workforce. In some cases, the word \u201ctypical\u201d can be used to describe a non-disabled condition, although be aware that some in the disability community object to its use.<\/p>\n

Wheelchair\/Wheelchair Bound\/Confined to a Wheelchair<\/strong><\/p>\n

Background:<\/strong> People who use mobility equipment such as a wheelchair, scooter or cane consider the equipment part of their personal space, according to the United Spinal Association. People who use wheelchairs have widely different disabilities and varying abilities. NCDJ Recommendation: It is acceptable to describe a person as \u201csomeone who uses a wheelchair,\u201d followed by an explanation of why the equipment is required. Avoid \u201cconfined to a wheelchair\u201d or \u201cwheelchair-bound\u201d as these terms describe a person only in relationship to a piece of equipment. The terms also are misleading, as wheelchairs can liberate people, allowing them to move about, and they are inaccurate, as people who use wheelchairs are not permanently confined to them but are transferred to sleep, sit in chairs, drive cars, etc.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
