  1. Down Syndrome: Discovery and Debate

    Down syndrome, or trisomy 21, was clinically described by John Langdon Down in 1866. In 1959, Jérôme Lejeune, Marthe Gautier and Raymond Turpin reported its chromosomal basis; credit for that discovery remains disputed, with Gautier’s role later reassessed. Prenatal screening can now identify pregnancies at increased likelihood of trisomy 21, creating an enduring ethical debate over disability, reproductive choice, and selective abortion. #DownSyndrome

  2. Went to Granite State Comic Con with Alice today. She had a great time as usual. That's her favorite costume, but it's got a lot of mileage on it at this point. #parenting #downsyndrome #cosplay

    [a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    When a mother couldn’t find a place willing to employ her son Liván, who has #DownSyndrome, she decided to create one.

    Liva Café in Havana employs people with intellectual disabilities and #autism, with support from specialists in #psychology and #SpecialEducation. For workers like Livan, Karel and Richard, it’s a place to earn experience, build relationships and show what they can do.

    Cuba has long had policies aimed at integrating people with #disabilities into the workspace. But as the people in Liva’s story explain, significant barriers remain — particularly when it comes to finding employers willing to give them an opportunity.

  34. I’m having a struggle, in my own mind, with posting online and the LLM beast.
    Thing is, I feel like I’m feeding the beast, and yet if I don’t put our story *out there*, our voice(s) may get lost….

    Hm.
