Cerebral Palsy Party Day Five Becoming Bullet Proof.

  So  I just finished watching an amazing documentary and film.   Bulletproof   is about a bar tender  who  is under threat by a gambler  who wants to take over the  bar to make an hotel.    Sounds like an ordinary movie   right.     It is but it isn't as the cast is comprised of people with and without disabilities.    All the main characters  have  a disability  whether its  Cerebral Palsy  Williams Syndrome or Down Syndrome.


     Since its Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month.   I am  going to talk about AJ.  AJ is man that has CP.   He is in a wheelchair and tends to be trapped  at his home a lot with his mom and sisters. AJ acted in many  plays when he was younger  so when he heard about the program,  which  shoots in  the  LA  area, he  begs and begs for a chance to go to camp ,  I tend to  do this a lot too.  The Film  Becoming Bulletproof  follows his journey to make   Bulletproof.


         I  really liked this movie.  As a disabled  advocate I have always been all for inclusion  of people with disabilities both  among disabled people, physical  and intellectual,  along with people without disabilities. This movie does both which is refreshing to see.  One of the things that  was hard to hear as a person with CP was when AJ says that he feels like he doesn't have a chance to give back. As a young person with CP  I totally understand where he is coming from.  I feel fortune that I am able to give back  but it is hard because some people are unwilling to accept the help.


 This is a great movie that comes highly recommend.
