society of the community. So work has many, many roles. But I think that, you know, one of the importance of work is, is that it, it communicates, you know, that people have value that people have worth, I've worked most of my life with people with extensive support needs. And just, you know, and I can clearly remember in the 80s, when this movement toward meaningful work and supported employment and multiple ways of getting people decent work. It's simply the presence of people with with more extensive support needs, in workplaces, change the dynamics. So work is is critical for a number of reasons. But certainly one of those reasons, relates to the dignity and you know, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. So shifting from the CRPD, to another UN Declaration of Human Rights, talks about inclusion in work as a basic human right. Article 23 says everyone has the right to work to free choice of employment, to just and favorable conditions of work, and to protection against unemployment. And, you know, it's these issues of choice that I think among the things that you've seen in some of this language that I think it's important that we grasp onto and I'll talk a little bit more later on about roles of autonomy and choice in 21st century and beyond work. But that, you know, the right to work is fundamental if people are to, to participate in the cultural, the societal, the political, all aspects of life, in the community. You know, one of the primary barriers to work has not in my mind, Ben, had anything to do with the person Or people themselves, it has to do with how society has structured, how society is structured itself, how, how disability itself, it has been understood. And I know that I don't have to tell most of you these things, but I think it's, it's worth reiterating, you know, we come at disability historically. And I've done quite a bit of work. And I realized early on, if you will, that in order to really understand the importance of self determination for people who were marginalized, and, and left out of the mainstream, I needed to understand how historically disability was understood. And, you know, the earliest, you know, mid 1800s, through the mid 1900s, really, disability was an extension of the medical model and, and it was an interiorized state, it was an individual path ology. And when we, you know, when we understand disability as a problem within the person, as, as these this historic way of understanding disability as we understand, you know, in that way the person is, is perceived as being broken and diseased and pathological and a typical on average, and it becomes, it becomes, you know, inevitable that people are treated as something less than fully, participants in society as fully, really human in many ways. You know, in my work, I kind of come to what I think are five overarching things we should have learned from these historic understandings of disability. And the first is that if we understand people as different, it really inevitably becomes construed as inferior, as leading to discrimination and maltreatment. We just have so many, many, many examples of that.
