Umthetho WaseMelika Abakhubazekile (ADA) waphasiswa ngoJulayi 26, 1990 ukuze wenqabele ukucwaswa kwabantu abakhubazekile kanye nezinselele zempilo yengqondo. Isihloko I se-ADA sibhekana nokucwaswa emsebenzini, futhi sidinga ukuthi abaqashi benzele abasebenzi abakhubazekile indawo yokuhlala efanele. Abantu abangaphezu kwesigidigidi emhlabeni wonke balinganiselwa ukuthi banokukhubazeka, futhi babhekene nezinselele zansuku zonke ezifana nalezi:

• Ukufinyeleleka kwezinsiza kanye nezinto zokuhamba;
• Ubunzima bokusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe, izinto zokwakha, izinsiza, noma izinqubomgomo ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nezidingo;
• Ukungabaza komqashi kanye nokucwaswa;
• Futhi nokuningi…

Kuwo wonke umkhakha wezokongiwa kwasolwandle, izinselele kanye namathuba okubandakanywa nokufinyeleleka asekhona. Nakuba ukukhubazeka ngokomzimba kuyisihloko sengxoxo ngezikhathi ezithile, kukhona okunye ukukhubazeka okuningana umkhakha ongabhekana nakho futhi uzivumelanise nokudala indawo ebandakanya wonke umuntu.

Ifulegi le-Diability Pride elaklanywa ngu-Ann Magill, futhi eliboniswe kunhlokweni ngenhla, liqukethe izici ezifanekisela ingxenye ehlukile yomphakathi wabakhubazekile:

Umkhakha wezokongiwa kwasolwandle unomsebenzi wokubhekana nezinselelo umphakathi okhubazekile obhekene nazo kuwo wonke umkhakha wethu. I-TOF ilwela ukuthobela ngangokunokwenzeka ukuze isekele abasebenzi nokunye okwengeziwe, futhi izoqhubeka nokwenza kanjalo eminyakeni ezayo. Ngezansi uhlu olungaphelele lwezinsiza nezibonelo ezigqamisa ukuthi izinhlangano zethu zingavala kanjani igebe:

Izibonelo ezimbalwa zendlela yokubhekana nokungafani:

• Ukulalela, nokuqasha, ososayensi abakhubazekile: Kubandakanya abantu abakhubazekile kulezi zingxoxo, nokuba nokufinyeleleka kunqunywe yibo, iyona ndlela kuphela indawo yokuhlala yeqiniso ezokwenziwa ngayo.

• "Izilwandle Ezifinyelelekayo” edalwe ngu-oceanographer u-Amy Bowler, Leslie Smith, John Bellona.

• Ukusingatha imicimbi? Khetha izinsiza ezifinyeleleka kalula futhi ezinobuchwepheshe obukhona ukubhekana nokukhubazeka kokubona nokuzwa; ngaphezu kwalokho, hlinzeka ngendawo yokuhlala kuyo yonke imicimbi noma imibuthano yenkampani. Lokhu kufanele kusebenze endaweni yakho yokusebenza futhi.

• Nikeza ukuqeqeshwa kwemisebenzi eyengeziwe kanye nezindawo zokuhlala ukuze usekele ukukhula nokuthuthukiswa kwabasebenzi njengoba ubungenza kwabanye abangaphandle komphakathi okhubazekile. 

• Nikeza ngamalungiselelo okusebenza avumelana nezimo kubantu abanokukhubazeka okungabonakali noma okungaxilongwa. Nikeza ilivu yokugula ebalulekile ukuze uvumele abasebenzi ukuthi bangasebenzisi isikhathi somuntu siqu noma seholide ukuze balulame noma babhekane nezinselele.

• Yehlisa kakhulu umsindo neziphazamiso ezibonakalayo ukuze usekele labo abanokukhubazeka kokubona.
