== Reappropriation == {{Main|Crip (disability term)}} In the same way that the term "queer" has been [[reappropriated]] by the [[gay rights movement]], members of the [[disability rights movement]] have [[Reappropriation|reclaimed words]] such as "cripple", "crip", and "[[wikt:gimp|gimp]]" to refer to themselves.<ref name="RichardsonPowell2011"/><ref name="BaglieriShapiro2012">{{cite book|author1=Susan Baglieri|author2=Arthur H. Shapiro|title=Disability Studies and the Inclusive Classroom: Critical Practices for Creating Least Restrictive Attitudes|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=tkaC2eYg-eUC&pg=PA49|accessdate=14 July 2013|year=2012|publisher=Routledge|isbn=978-0-415-99372-2|pages=49β}}</ref> The ''cripple tribunal'' in [[Dortmund]] on 13 December 1981 was one of the main protest actions of the autonomous German disability movement (in confrontation with the established disability assistance) against human rights abuses in [[nursing homes]] and [[psychiatric hospitals]], as well as against deficiencies of local public transport.
