DISNEY AND INCLUSIVITY

 

 

Hi, everyone! Today I want to talk about the new and inclusive movie of Disney Company: Strange World. Why is it so important? It is the first Disney movies with a gay main character.

The movie tells the story of the Clade family, the father  Jaeger, his son Searcher, his daughter-in-law Meridian and his grandson Ethan. In the movie, Ethan has a strange behaviour when he meets one of his friends, Diazo. They have something more than a friendship. He reveals that he is falling in love with this guy and his family supports him and tells him to follow his heart. Ethan Clade is one of the first LGBTQIA+ characters who openly declares his feelings and shows his sexual orientation on a Disney animated movie.

WORLD DOWN SYNDROME DAY

                        

 

Why March 21st ?Down syndrome, also called Trisomy 21, is characterized by the presence of an extra chromosome-three instead of two- in chromosomal pair n.21 inside the cells 2+1=3. So this date represents the chromosomal defection found in the Down Syndrome and the twenty-first day of the third month, celebrate World Down Syndrome Day. An event created to raise public awareness, promote inclusivity, encourage advocacy and support the wellbeing of those living with Down Syndrome.
