    Can people with a disability play sports? 

    Yes, I have played a few 

    There is still a long road ahead for people with disability

    Everyone thinks that those of us with a disability are not important

    And how we feel doesn’t matter

    And our heart and soul are defined by our disability

    But we are stronger together and we should embrace our abilities

    Who we are and our identity

    It is important to have allies

    And I am glad to have some amazing allies

    We could contribute to society in different ways

    Follow the light into a community 

    For a life with justice

    And this is coming from a girl who has a intellectual disability

    So act right.

    We acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation. The University of Sydney – where we write, publish and distribute Honi Soit – is on the sovereign land of these people. As students and journalists, we recognise our complicity in the ongoing colonisation of Indigenous land. In recognition of our privilege, we vow to not only include, but to prioritise and centre the experiences of Indigenous people, and to be reflective when we fail to be a counterpoint to the racism that plagues the mainstream media.
