On the contrary, Doyle. You are falling into the trap of reading too much from my three sentences.
Doyle; Good we agree then. In my personal history of the U.S. south during segregation 'knowing' a smart negro was a sign of not coming to terms with a racist system. And so I am especially sensitive to not seeing this personal attachment to so-called exceptional people as a game to find the best when we want the whole of society changed. The individual history is easily used to say anything and everything. Similarly in disability rights struggles we (again in the U.S.) do not use 'super crips' as the tool to get across rights for all disabled people. thanks, Doyle Saylor
