Red Disability

Red Disability is not a group, charity, political party, or any form of formal organisation. It is a website on disability issues, and how they relate to a left-wing socialist outlook.
Red Disability's view is that disability prejudice is not caused by human nature, but by stereotypes promoted by the organisation of capitalist society.
Disability discrimination can be overt discrimination tied in with prejudice, but is perhaps more commonly the exclusion of people with disabilities from activities resulting from an inaccessible built environment (this varies from disability to disability - see the Disability Fact Files).
Disability discrimination is a form of oppression, which can be overcome by various actions, at all levels of society.
