That's one of your needs.

But we don't call that a special need.

because more people wear glasses than are blind.

My needs aren't special.

I'm a human with needs.

And so being a part of the proud disability community, I own the word disabled that comes with a beautiful community beside me.

I own the word blind.

These are not bad words.

They are only bad words if we assign negativity to them.

And I actually argue that by using terms like differently abled, handicapable, special needs, we are neglecting to see the problems that exist.

We need to say the word disabled.

I am disabled and that's okay.

But what disables me is society.

And we need to talk about that.

We need to talk about the issues that exist in order to change them.

Correct.

And I can tell you, I'm not unaware that I'm blind.

Like when people don't want to say blind out loud, I'm like, you're not the first to let me know.

Don't worry.

Like, it's okay.
