Poem - "Eugenics, Megenics and Genocide” by Rev. Laura Cannata Eugenics is alive and well Society makes being disabled a living hell I wish I could write a cute little rhyme or an easy pneumonic, but this subject is too important For frivolity So, here’s the facts: Sometimes we are an eyesore How dare we leave the house?! People don’t want to see our disfigurements and deformities And they don’t mind saying so either And what’s the point of leaving home when most buildings are closed to us And if by some act of kindness, we do get in The rest of the building is unnavigable Disabled people lose their health insurance and monthly government pittance if we get married This is a roundabout way to ensure that we don’t procreate It’s forced sterilization without the inconvenience of paying a doctor Sometimes we are seen as useless burdens and yet not only is there no incentive for productivity, it is in fact actively discouraged with financial penalties We are not allowed to own a home or any assets, constantly enforcing dependency and financial ruin If we can’t afford to rent, we must choose between a group home or homelessness Forced incarceration or death from independence Either way it is a slow genocide It is a rare opportunity to find employment Bottom line why should they pay us and pay for our accommodations It’s not cost effective and in a capitalistic society money means more than people We are routinely denied lifesaving treatment (all the more so if you are a Person Of Color) Even more during a pandemic Because cost of treatment and resources are not worth it for the quality of life you deem us to have But if we don’t get to determine your quality, why should you get to determine ours As a disabled person we have the choice of one of two roles (Either anger and bitterness, Being the troublemaker The rabble rouser always asking for change) Or we can be the innocent object of pity The act of charity abled people do to feel better about themselves And if we are not properly grateful for basic rights (IE accommodations to be able to pee, etc.) then we have obviously chosen option number one There is no in-between Just a flipside of the same coin Being disabled doesn’t hinder me Society has placed the stumbling blocks So, thanks for asking but no I don’t hate my body But why should I care for a nation that both actively and passively wants me dead Being disabled, not a disaster Being a member of society, come back when you give a damn 6.
