Equality in difference
Social discrimination
He has written a book titled the
"Life Without Limits: Inspiration
for a Ridiculously Good Life." In
this book, Nick tells the story of
his physical disability and the
emotional battle to live with it in
his childhood, adolescence and
adulthood.
To discriminate means “to
make a distinction”. In our
society, there are many people
with physical difficulties. These
people are equal to people that
have no disabilities. But, because
they are different, many of
these people are discriminated.
There are people who think
that, just because these disa-
bled people are different, they
should “be kept away”. This is
pure discrimination.
