00:00:05.989 --> 00:00:09.169
Oh you know people with disabilities

00:00:09.169 --> 00:00:11.687
have already been 
isolated, you know?

00:00:13.503 --> 00:00:16.963
And the country is finally waking up

00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:20.970
to the realities of people with disabilities

00:00:21.026 --> 00:00:24.596
We work from home. Many of us

00:00:24.596 --> 00:00:28.076
do our whole work from the bed.

00:00:29.266 --> 00:00:32.523
We've been telemarketing

00:00:32.523 --> 00:00:35.023
ever since the internet began.

00:00:36.025 --> 00:00:40.325
I'm glad that the rest of the world

00:00:40.325 --> 00:00:45.721
is waking up to what the people

00:00:45.721 --> 00:00:49.071
with disabilities have

00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:51.731
been living since day one.

00:00:52.005 --> 00:00:55.895
The question is, after this,

00:00:55.895 --> 00:00:58.830
are we going to really sit down and

00:00:59.879 --> 00:01:03.449
look at how we can implement

00:01:03.459 --> 00:01:06.280
some of the things that people with

00:01:06.297 --> 00:01:10.147
disabilities have been doing since day one

00:01:11.046 --> 00:01:15.316
The media is so idiotic because if you

00:01:15.557 --> 00:01:20.951
look at any other things, it takes

00:01:20.961 --> 00:01:25.335
brown and black people. If you look at

00:01:25.335 --> 00:01:29.114
who's working in grocery stores

00:01:29.114 --> 00:01:33.076
whose doing this essential work...

00:01:33.289 --> 00:01:36.419
My sister works with banks.

00:01:36.561 --> 00:01:40.071
She has to go to work.

00:01:40.214 --> 00:01:42.044
It makes sense that

00:01:42.123 --> 00:01:45.403
black and brown people are affected more

00:01:45.863 --> 00:01:47.409
by this virus

00:01:47.409 --> 00:01:49.619
The thing is, what are we

00:01:49.619 --> 00:01:52.299
going do about it as a country?

00:01:52.610 --> 00:01:56.280
I think Institutionalized Racism

00:01:56.280 --> 00:01:59.851
kills us constantly, every day.

00:02:00.751 --> 00:02:07.211
With the virus, it just compounds it.
