GARCIA-VASQUEZ, Eduardo. The discrimination for disability as an emergent topic in the context of the social contemporary movements. rev.fac.med. [online]. 2015, vol.63, suppl.1, pp.155-160. ISSN 0120-0011.  https://doi.org/10.15446/revfacmed.v63n3sup.50571.

Historically, people with disabilities have been part of a sector that, over prejudices, rooted in the binomial normality / abnormality, has suffered discrimination. However, thanks to awareness processes that gradually have taken place in different parts of the world, a movement of people with disabilities is emerging in a more visible way, movement that, in its process of consolidation as a social subject, is also making contributions to the understanding of forms of oppression that, until recently, were not considered as such. In this context, this document, that is part of a research on disability and colonialism carried out in the south of Mexico, explores, with the use of the grounded theory, the path that the transformation of the notions about of the persons with disability has followed as a consequence of the social contemporary movements, leading to the conclusion that the traditional notions have generated the exclusion of this sector, understanding the exclusion as "social death".
