Universal race – being a disable person.
Susan M. Giusto

I hear this a lot from the non-disabled race(s). You are described by your disability, “The chick with glasses…”, “the dude in the wheelchair.” ” The kid with the artificial leg.” In a crowd people scan for that and then further qualify with color race labels. Some days it is hard, other days it is just normal but it is there… just like the shade of ones skin.

A concept I made and copyrighted this for a children’s book and character I made for my daughter 23 or 24 years ago. I wanted to convey to my daughter Aria the importance of everything and everyone in her life whether black, white, etc. gay/homosexual, different religions, rich/poor or anything in between. I had a bit of everything I mentioned being – rich/poor, gay, Jewish, black etc…

Only bigots believe prejudice is universal

I grew up in a household where we were basically allowed to develop our own opinions about prejudice. I’ve never been a racist. My prejudice of choice was against gay men. Something that I’m still ashamed of having felt, even though I’ve since let that go. When I became an adult, I realized how foolish prejudice in any form is, regardless of the excuse. Not saying that I’m anything special, or that I love or trust everyone, but I judge people based on their character rather than race, gender, income, etc. And, yes, stereotypes are prejudice. When people say that everyone fits in a particular category, then they’re only revealing something about themselves. Prejudice is Not Universal
