Sujeet Desai
On June 22, 2001 I graduated from Fayetteville-Manlius High school in Syracuse,
New York with honor roll. ( GPA 4.3) I am the first special education student
inducted in the Oak Chapter of FM High school as a National Honor Society
member. In May 2003 I graduated from the Berkshire Hills Music Academy in
South Hadley, Massachusetts after two-year residential Post- secondary study
in Music and Human services. Emerging from the academy with higher music
skills and the successful experience of independent living on a college campus,
I will continue to do solo performances and self-advocacy workshops. I have
a job in Rome, NY for self-advocacy and disability awareness.

Daniel Migneault
I've been painting for about five years and I've been disabled for 13 years.
The medium I like to use the most is acrylic on canvas. My attitude towards
style is that theres no rules or conventions which makes it a whole lot of
fun. And I'm more interested in the content than the shell itself. J'ai creer
ce site web pour parteger mes creations artistique.

The Nasty Girls
The Nasty Girls are an incredibly funny bunch. Fearless is an overused word
to describe this sort of cutting edge humour but in this case it is true.
The three ladies fearlessly and with gusto attacked many of the patronizing
and thoughtless views that get directed towards people who are considered
to be "disabled". Their wonderful mix of parody, concert party
and stand-up has to be seen.

Sandford Tuey
I create poetry, screenplays, comics, games, books and entertainment products.
Galactic Gladiators is a science fiction adventure story that explains why
creatures from many planets are being harvested by aliens. Humans from the
past are teamed with groups of humans and creatures of other planets from
the present day to fight a galactic war between two superior alien life forms.
I intend to make animation and film projects from the proprietary projects
I have invented.
