Re: Colin Revell asks for DAN's support at courtcase tomorrow....
Mike Higgins(DANMAIL) et al....
Mike, thanks for your email, but it seems to have no impact in getting me
support I need from others.
Joe Whittaker and I have not received any emails, phonecalls, or other
correspondents and offer of support from anyone within DAN, and the disabled
people's, neurodiversity, mental health survivors, independent and includion
living movements for my court case tomorrow, except for the usual few who
have given me their
support, especially Adrian Whyatt(DANDA), Joe Whittaker, Navin Kikabhai and
David Glenister and Hazel Pottage, Hull and East Riding Mental Health Action
Group.
All these years of being pro-actively involved in these 'movements' have
meant that I have suffered continued 'abuse', by the authorities for
self-advocating for myself and advocating for others too.
I have always offered my support to numerous individuals ever since becoming
involved within these 'movements' and have attended many
protests, conferences and, if needed, the court 'with-others' within DAN and
the 'other 'movements' to offer my support when neeeded travelling great
distances to be at Court and these protests oo at my own expense on a
'low-income'.
No-one has ever joined me on myn own 'protests' and come to court 'with-me',
except Adrian Whyatt here in the East Riding of Yorkshire and Hull
localities. I have travelled to be 'with-others' when they have needed me
and been there at many conferences across the UK, especially also within
independent and inclusion movements too.
I know that Adrian, Navin and Joe are sharing my
feelings and anger at the way I feel continually 'let-down' at me not
receiving any correspondents and offer of support for case tomorrow from
anyone within local, national and international 'the-movements' and within
DAN. I have given so much too others all these years and suffered so much
abuse and I think to myself if no one cares, so why should I bother putting
myself at risk all the time and suffering all this abuse fighing for basic
human rights and civil liberties and 'justice' to 'FREEOURPEOPLE'.
It has not been easy, within this email, for me to express my feelings and
tell you how hurt I feel and the 'inner-pain' I am suffering at feeling that
no-one giveas a toss and cares , but Adrian believe's it needed to be said.
Adrian and others within the 'neurodiverse' and mental health survivors
movements believe that 'our' 'voices' are not wanted within the disabled
people's, inclusion and independent living movements and
'we' are 'not' included, as like those disabled people labelled with
learning disabilities, especially from the lower-socio groups, like myself
and this is why I've had no offer of support within my case and am being
left feeling 'isolated' and 'excluded' and all alone fighting 'the-system'
and 'Government' and 'public-bodies' and 'The-Courts' with a 'lone-voice'.
Is it right what Anthony J. D'Angelo stated:- "Without a sense of caring,
then there can be no sense of 'community'. ( or will I add; disabled
peoples, mental health survivors, neurodiversity, independent and inclusive
living 'community')
That how it 'feels' to me at present and I feel hurt that others are not
offering me their support.
I would just like to know why?
