Extra Edition.
Undocumented disabled people face the same issues as any other disabled person, but their challenges are compounded by isolation, segregation, and fear. Many fear deportation and do not call authorities or social agencies when in critical need. An advocate discusses the issues, including discrimination during the coronavirus pandemic, talks about the barriers, and clarifies the rights of disabled people. Also, incidents and violence and harassment against Asian Americans are on the rise amid pandemic. What’s behind the attacks? Hatred and bigotry? Civil rights groups demand action.
