Jack educating ppl on Tourette’s, Jacks Dad is black btw.

The vitriol I’ve seen online this morning is absolutely fucking wild. I’m seeing people openly suggest disabled people should remove themselves from public spaces in case their involuntary tics offend someone. That is segregation rhetoric. And it’s dangerous. When high-profile

John's not mad. A seminal documentary on extreme Tourettes that thankfully shaped the conversation in this nation in the 80's To our pig ignorant American cousins and those ignoring a severe disability and its consequences, take 28 minutes to watch it. Then accept your fucking

Before you wade into the debate about last night’s Baftas, take time to read this from Tourettes Action.

I was wrong about the tourettes outburst at BAFTA, and I'm sorry for rushing to judgment. We were all mislead - the BBC edited out every other outburst during the program except that one. They created a situation that appeared singular and targeted. I do not diminish the

This morning I’ve woke up and I stand by every, single word I said yesterday. John, we’ve got your back. You’re a good man, who educated a nation on Tourette’s and how to treat people with disabilities, and we’re indebted to you for that. #iswear #Tourettes #baftas

I’m dealing with a family emergency, so I won’t be doing broadcast interviews on the John Davidson Tourette’s tic at the BAFTAs story. Hearing the N word shouted at two of the most successful black actors in the world, on stage at the BAFTAs and broadcast on the BBC, was

This is incredible.

In Pakistan, girls are considered a family burden, so Muslim fathers often discard newborn babies by throwing them into garbage piles. Headlines periodically emerge about this horrific practice after local residents hear cries and pull out the babies. Indeed, Pakistani Muslim

It seems now we have transitioned from, - Outrage and emotional upset being voiced about a word that was said, upset which was totally valid, but sustained by a lack of understanding about Tourettes. To, - Outrage and hate being spread purely for content farming, likes and

Her pinned post is saying that black and ethnic minority people are not responsible for educating white people on racism… …but she expects that John should have educated on his condition in a moment of anxiety and distress? Absolute hypocrite.

This is the very best of humanity. When Lewis Capaldi was struggling against his Tourette’s syndrome at Glastonbury, whole crowd supported him through to finish ‘Someone You Loved’. I’m not crying, you're crying.

This week has been unbelievable. The disinformation and harmful rhetoric being spread about Tourette’s and disability more broadly, has been hard not to react to. And if we’re feeling this way, I can only imagine how John and others are feeling. What a world.
