Also the British Restricted Growth Association and our overseas partners the
Little People of America both work towards 'normalising' short people and
fitting us into society at high costs to minorities within a minority
organisation as opposed to celebrating diversity or difference and challenging
discrimination in order to work towards realistic inclusion for all. Both
charities promote a strong capitalist, white, middle class/resourced ideology.
