Sacral amyloidosis, a congenital birth defect, has left her wheelchair-bound since she was a baby. She aspires to inspire other handicapped individuals, as well as local governments and companies, to make their workplaces as well as communities more inclusive and accessible. Reiterating the need of appreciating and valuing our differences in order to maximise our potential as individuals and as a society. With Alycia’s help, you’ll be able to think outside the box when it comes to solving everyday problems. She’s always been like this.
The United States was just beginning its disabilities rights movement when her sacral agenesis was discovered in her first first year life (in 1975). Congress enacted a statute on equal access to public services two years before to the groundbreaking Americans with Disabilities Act, which was passed 15 years later.
The windows of opportunity of hundreds and thousands of underprivileged people was just about to open for her when she was a youngster, but her parents were conscious that she would face enormous hurdles and sufferings in the years ahead. One of the first autistic children who benefit from the Health Insurance Act’s implementation in 1973, she was one of the first.
Every every day of her life, she’s been a subject in sociological experiments of some sort or another. To ensure that she had same possibilities as everyone else in the community, her parents chose to work hard for a better future for their daughter.
She grew up with the simple but profound message that everything you set your mind to, you can achieve. Because, as we all know, there can be no true inclusion without full access, these concepts are deeply ingrained in her persona.
Andres Anderson was born with a condition that requires him to be wheelchair-bound. To help others achieve their fullest potential in both their personal and professional lives, this woman, who was born having sacral agenesis, has dedicated her life to preaching about the importance of valuing differences and embracing all individuals. Making a point of emphasising the reality that our uniqueness are what make each of us uniquely equipped and talented in the world. Alycia helps you glimpse a world of opportunity by finding the right size for your daily challenges. The way she does things is just the norm for her!
Her desire to be both persuaded and vulnerable was fueled by her ability to overcome the challenges of daily life to find optimism on the other sides of her fears. Her capacity to stand up for others less fortunate than herself has been shaped by some of the most important individuals in her life.
As a kind of social prejudice, ableism refers to discrimination against persons with impairments. Everywhere you look, there are people with impairments. A cursory glance at the shop or a casual comment during an interview are just two ways our media presents our communities as “less than” / “substandard.” Ableism and its effects must be recognised in order to properly understand what it means to be inclusive as well as accessible for people of varied backgrounds, abilities, and capacities. However entrenched it may be in the community, it should still be addressed.
In her TEDx presentation, she discusses the damaging effects of ableism by drawing on her own personal journey of coming to terms with and loving her physical limits. Using her upbringing and adulthood as an example of how “disabling ableism,” as she describes it, is the only path to a more varied society, she shows how to acknowledge the beauty and abilities in everyone.
It’s high time we took a fresh look at things. We can’t conceal our differences from one another. Neither can anybody else. They must embrace and honour them, know about them, think about them, argue about them, and eventually share them as one of the most precious resources of life.
She presented her TEDx presentation as a way to achieve a long-held desire and as a love letter to Herself, hoping that people with learning impairments and society as a whole would see the light and take action by turning off the stigma connected with their existence. She thinks, with all of her heart, that the most advanced approach to promote inclusivity is available to them all.
