Article on media treatment of people with disabilities after the ADA was enacted in 1990.
A quote from the article:
"In the mind of the public and the media, there are 'legitimate' and 'worthy' disabilities, usually those visible to the naked eye, such as mobility impairments and blindness. At the other end of the spectrum, there are the 'undeserving disabled,' people who are thought to be to blame for their conditions."
When listening to an ebook with TalkBack, if I get a regular notification, the ebook resumes after the notification.
But if I get a charging notification, the reading does not resume. Sometimes when my phone is on the charger, it will announce the charging level at random times, and TalkBack just stops.
Does anyone have any experience with disabling charging notifications or getting the screen reader to resume automatically?
"…Carter often struggled to implement key parts of his agenda, and disability rights was no exception. So disabled people had to step in to do the work that the non-disabled simply couldn't get done on their own."
