Keeping up with Samuel
Can you go as far or fast as Samuel Habib?
Many folks will remember the documentary called “Including Samuel,” the video by Dan Habib about his son’s experiences in school and the more general environment. In case you’ve forgotten, Samual has cerebral palsy. Well, Dan and Samuel released a video via the New York Times.
The video shows Samuel’s exploration of life as a 21-year-old with a disability. If you think about that idea for a few moments…yes, there’s not only content about disabilities (with guest stars!), but there’s lots more (moving out of one’s parents’ house, sex, and more).
I encourage readers to watch it here.
At this stage of my life, I’d have to say “no.” A very compelling and powerful message from Samuel. I’d like to see a similar video message from someone with a “hidden” disability such as EBD.
