7/17/26 - Friday Video Share: "Disability 'Awareness' and 'Disability Pride'"
Disability "Awareness" and Disability "Pride"
Tina Friml's Instagram - July 15, 2026
I was just starting to worry about what I should do to mark this year's Disability Pride Month, when my Instagram feed offered up this amazing video from disabled comedian Tina Friml. I think her idea of what "Disability Pride" is all about is very persuasive and helpful. Tina tells a good story, too.
Happy Disability Pride Month everyone, and have a great weekend.
