The disabled population is the biggest minority group in the world. It is continuously
growing in number and yet it’s acceptance by the non-disabled population of the world is low.
This group is one that either many of us will one day join or someone close to us will join. This is
a simple fact and yet those whom are disabled are portrayed in text and thus stigmatized from, is
very different than one might think. How people with disabilities are accepted is through three
different ways when it comes to both text and the real world. This is how they are accepted by
non-disabled characters in texted, how they accept themselves and how that impacts how disabled are accepted in the real world. This is what creates both the way and how we accept people with
disabilities, which can lead to either positively or despair.
