Do Our Conceptions of Disability Rights Need a Reboot?

https://www.ncld.org/archives/action-center/what-we-ve-done/do-our-conceptions-of-disability-rights-need-a-reboot?fbclid=IwAR0kDkjaQAdwl9pIfhlNWxiFrrFr0Bmhm45c5BL4vTxVINH_oC8uLlLWlwM

Is our vision of educating students with disabilities aligned with the demands of the 21st century? The answer to that all important civil rights question changes with time. A satisfactory answer when IDEA was first authorized in 1975 (under the title, Education for All Handicapped Children Act) would certainly not be sufficient today. Nobody would disagree that much has changed both in our conception of disabilities and the demands for success in the 21st century.
