This article is based on Naomi's life. Naomi has a different opinion than Cara Liebowitz. Naomi has a less visible disability, so she passes for someone who has no disability. Naomi believed that overcoming disability was not a privilege. Since Naomi has a less visible appearance, people believed that she was a person without disabilities. People with invisible disabilities have difficulties compared to those with visible disabilities. People pay more attention to visible disability and don't even think twice about people with invisible disability. With this in mind, who do you think would have a higher suicide rate? Obviously people with disabilities are invisible, as they do not receive any attention or help and are even treated as non-disabled people. ““Passing” is not a privilege, as it ultimately means we are not accepted anywhere. . . passing is just another kind of disadvantage. This quote shows how the author feels; Naomi passes as an abled body, as a result no one knows she has a disability. And now Naomi would have to work twice as hard and be twice as careful as anyone else
