About this Quote

This quote by Lois Capps speaks to the unfortunate reality that people might still be discriminated against due to their health conditions. This discrimination can take lots of types, such as being rejected work, real estate, or access to services. It can also manifest in the kind of spoken or physical abuse, or even in the kind of exemption from social activities. This kind of discrimination is wrong and must not be endured. It is important to acknowledge that everyone deserves to be treated with respect and dignity, regardless of their health condition. We need to make every effort to produce a society that is inclusive and accepting of all people, no matter their health condition. Only then can we genuinely progress and create a more equitable and just society.
