#stopableism2015

The tag #stopableism2015 seems quite popular on Twitter currently. I've not quite worked out what it means but it has a bunch of interesting posts about discrimination with the tag. I'm mindful there is a danger of overly playing the victim card but if anyone uses Twitter it might be good to add some head injury posts to it to get the message out.

Seems to be linked to the very sad case of Neli Latson a young lad with autism.

I don't understand Twitter either but look at the StopAbleism2015 hashtag

twitter.com/hashtag/StopAbl...

For example

"#StopAbleism2015 Because people with invisible disabilities are afraid to disclose to potential employers a major part of our identities." which may speak to many people in this forum.
