THE WASHINGTON POST: Commonplace photos, tools, documents, other objects tell the story of disability
EveryBody, an online exhibit put together by the Smithsonian, is meant to tell the history of what it has been like to have a disability in the United States. It looks at objects that people with disabilities have used, including a sewing machine, utensils with chunky handles, and past objects used to raise money for people with disabilities. Twenty-five percent of American adults have a disability, and this exhibit shows how they have been a part of American history.
