Abstract
Why do we care? This chapter covers it all. The intersection of disability, employment, and race is well defined by the co-authors of this chapter and ranges from Black issues to those of immigrant groups to those with special needs in competition. But why is it needed? Even after decades of working on the issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion, we are not yet there. Life in the USA is still one filled with inequity, short on diversity and lacking in inclusion for special groups. Hopefully, reading this chapter will help the reader move introspectively toward a higher personal goal.
