PABU...
That's a cute name. But seriously. Aren't
diagnostics important?

Diagnostics
are, if you ask disability rights activists, one
of the roots of all evil. They separate us from
one another, making everyone with any kind of a
disability feel "special" in their isolation
rather than bringing us together to fight what
all of us have in common.
And
what's that? It's being labeled, exploited,
incarcerated, insulted, ignored, and finally
slapped off into perpetual poverty. But how
could those terrible things happen when everyone
knows how much care is lavished on the
handicapped?

This
cartoon by Mike Brown appeared first in Mouth
Magazine sometime in 1994, we think. Today Mike
Brown is a serious painter, and even making a
living at it (!), but back in 1993 he turned up
at the Mouthhouse door with one zillion good
ideas and a nonstop drawing arm. His dad Charlie
has a label; that's how Mike knows.
