Abafazi abancinci: LA. (Ifoto: Ubomi bonke) Ukuziphendulela : Eli nqaku luluvo lomntu. Andizami ukuba lilizwi lomntu wonke omncinci wabantu. Andinanto nxamnye nabantu abakhetha ukuba kulo mboniso.
Igama lam ndinguHollisUAndrews nam ndingumntu omncinci. Ndingu-4'2 ″ kwaye ndinoluhlobo lwesinciphiso esibizwa ngokuba yi-achondroplasia. Umama wam ubude bumndilili kwaye utata wam wayengumntu omncinci. Ndihlala eLos Angeles kwaye ngoku ndikhangela ikhondo lomsebenzi weqonga. Xa ndacelwa ukuba ndibekho Abafazi abancinci: LA, Kwakukwizigaba zokuqala, ngaphambi kokuba umboniso usayinwe kunye nenethiwekhi. Ndandiqwengiwe ngokwenene ukuba ingaba le yayiyinto endifuna ukuzibophelela kuyo. Ibiya kuba kukuvezwa okumangalisayo kwaye ngokungafihlisiyo, bendinjalo (kwaye okwangoku) ngekhe ndikwazi ukuhlawula umvuzo ozinzileyo.
Kodwa kwelinye icala, andizange ndifune ukwenza inyani kumabonakude. Khange ndiqokelele amawaka eedola kwimali mboleko yomfundi yesidanga semidlalo yeqonga ukwenza inyani. Emva kwenyanga ingxoxo, babelungiselela ukwenza ifilimu umqhubi wenqwelomoya kwaye uxinzelelo lwalukukum ekugqibeleni ndenze isigqibo. Ngokucacileyo, ndaphela ndisithi hayi. Bebezokufota umqhubi wenqwelomoya kwelinye lamalungu omcimbi wokuzalwa welungu. Zange ndadibana nalo mfazi ngaphambili kwaye ndaqonda ukuba akukho sizathu sokuba ndizimase lo mbhiyozo ngaphandle komboniso. Kwaye ngephanyazo, ndabona ikamva lam ukuba ndithe ewe kulo mboniso. Ukuthatha ubuhlobo kunye nokuzimasa iminyhadala ebendingenamdla kuyo ukuze nje abantu kumagumbi abo okuhlala babe nento yokubukelangolwesibiniubusuku. Kwaye njengokuba ndibhala le nto, ndiye ndayiqonda into yokuba ukuba bendisebenza kule nto, i-NBC sitcom, ibiya kuba yinto efanayo. Kodwa kule meko, bendiya kudlala umlinganiswa. Andizukubonisa umfanekiso ozibaxayo wam.
Abantu abaninzi kuluntu oluncinci lwabantu bonwabile malunga noku kungena kwemiboniso kuba bazisa ulwazi lokuba ngumntu omncinci kunye noluntu lwethu. Ndineengxaki ezininzi ngegama lokwazisa. Ndiyakholelwa ukuba kunyanzelekile ukuzisa ulwazi ngeengxaki abajamelana nazo uninzi. Ukuba ayenzeki, akukho nto iya kuze itshintshe. Kodwa, ndiziva ngathi kukho iindlela ezingcono zokwenza. Xa iinethiwekhi zenza umboniso wokwenyani, zenza umtsalane. Bathatha abantu ekunokwenzeka ukuba baqhelekile kwaye babenze babonakale ngathi baphambene. Abantu abancinci sele babonwa ngokwahlukileyo ngokwaneleyo. Sinikwe imbonakalo encinci enembeko kumajelo eendaba. Imiboniso yokwenyani esekwe kwimidlalo yedrama kunye nokulwa kwekati ithatha enye yezona zinto zimbalwa kakhulu kwaye ziphakathi kwamathuba okumelwa kunye nokuzigqatsa. Kwaye yile nto yonke le nto ibilayo. Le miboniso ingalixesha lokuphela komntu ahlangana nomntu omncinci. Andazi ukuba bangaphi bethu, kodwa ndiqinisekile ukuba kukho abantu abathile abaza kuhamba ubomi babo bonke ngaphandle kokubona umntu omncinci ebomini bokwenyani. Ke ekuphela komzekelo wokuhlala kwam uya kuba yiyo nantoni na abayibonayo kumabonwakude. UHollis Andrews (Umfanekiso unikezelwe)
Abantu abancinci bebesetyenziselwa ukuzonwabisa amawaka eminyaka. Kwi-Egypt yakudala, abantu abancinci babehlonitshwa njengoothixo kwaye babenothixo omncinci. Igama lakhe lalinguBes kwaye wayejonge ukungalunganga okulityelwe abanye oothixo. Abantu abancinci babesetyenziswa njengamaqhula wenkundla ukusuka eRoma yakudala ukuya kwinkulungwane yeshumi elinesithoba. UAgasto Kesare wayesondele kakhulu kumntu wakhe omncinci, uLucius, kangangokuba xa uLucius wasweleka, uAgasto wayalela ukuba kwenziwe umfanekiso wakhe ngamatye axabisekileyo. Kodwa lo ngumzekelo nje omnye wobubele ngokuchasene namakhulu eeakhawunti zokuthotywa ezijamelene nazo. Ngexesha leminyhadala yamaRoma, iinkwenkwana zaziphoswa kumabala emidlalo kwaye zinyanzelwa ukuba zilwe, njengezilwanyana. UKumkani uCharles weThoba wamkela izipho ezisixhenxe. UCharles Owokuqala wazisa into efihliweyo ngaphakathi kwipayi njengesipho sokumkanikazi wakhe omtsha. Rhoqo kwimizobo, ungafumana amantshontsho emi ecaleni kwezinja neenkawu kuba nazo zazibonwa njengezilwanyana zasekhaya. Kwaye okokugqibela kodwa kungaphelelanga apho, iisekisi kunye nemiboniso eyahlukileyo. Abantu abancinci ababoniswayo njengezinto nje zokuhlekisa nokuhlekisa. Incwadi Ezintliziyweni Zethu Besizizigebenga nguYehuda Koren noEliat Negev bachaza ukuba kwakunjani ukuzama ukuthathwa ngokungathi ngumdlali omncinci omncinci ngeminyaka yoo-1930: Xa inkwenkwana inqwenela ukwaziswa ngetalente yayo yokwenene kunye nobugcisa bokwenyani njengomdlali (ngokuchasene nobufutshane bakhe) , ngokubanzi kwangqineka kungenakwenzeka. UFrank Delfino wayenethemba lokufumana ukwamkelwa njenge-virtuoso violinist. Wanyanzelisa ukuba kungakhankanywa ukukhubazeka kwakhe ekwaziseni iikonsathi zakhe kodwa watsho phantsi; ii-impresarios zakhe zamtyhola ‘njengeyona violinist incinci ehlabathini.’ Nangona wayeza kuvela kwimiboniso bhanyabhanya efana nePlanet of the Apes kunye neThe Incredible Shrinking Woman, waziwa kakhulu ngendima ayidlalileyo kwintengiso yehamburger kaMcDonald de wafikelela kwiminyaka engama-80.
Ndiza nembali yabantu abancinci ukubonisa ukuba ngamanye amaxesha, kubonakala ngathi akukho nto itshintshileyo. Ngaba inyani ibonisa imiboniso emitsha? Ngezihloko ezinje 19 Abantwana nokuBala , Oomama boMdaniso , 16 kwaye ukhulelwe , Isidanga sokuqala , kunzima ukuthi hayi. Yindlala eyoyikisayo uluntu olunayo yokufuna ukufumana amava e-schadenfreude okanye ukubona ukuba esinye isiqingatha siphila njani.
Kwaye andizukucaphuka kakhulu yile nto yokuthontelana kwenyani ibonisa malunga nabantu abancinci ukuba besimelwe ngokufanelekileyo kwezinye iindlela zokuzonwabisa. Ngaphandle kukaPeter Dinklage, Tony Cox (Bad Santa) noDanny Woodburn (owayedlala uMickey Abbott eSeinfeld), phantse akunakwenzeka ukubiza abadlali abaphumeleleyo kunye nabadlali abathi nabo babe ngabantu abancinci. Abantu bayacaphuka malunga neKardashians emele abasetyhini eMelika kodwa kuyo yonke iKardashian kukho iMeryl Streep, uNatalie Portman, okanye uZoe Saldana. Abantu abancinci abanayo loo nto. Ndifuna ukuba ngumdlali weqonga ukusukela xa ndandikwibanga lokuqala kwaye ndadlala ingelosi, uGabriel, kumdlalo wokuzalwa. Ndabambelela ngokuqinileyo kweli phupha kwade kwaba kwibanga lesithandathu xa ingcinga yokuphazamiseka yangena entlokweni yam yandixelela ukuba andisoze ndibengumdlali weqonga kuba ndingumntu omncinci. Ndabona ukuba ekubeni kungekho mntu kumabonwakude ofana nam, oko kuthetha ukuba ngekhe abekho. Ndide ndanezihlobo nosapho bendikhuthaza ukuba ndiye ekubhaleni ngoba bekusonwabisa kodwa bendingazukujongana nentliziyo ebuhlungu yokuxelelwa hayi kuba ndizalwe ndinofuzo. Ndisaqhubekile nokudlala kwimiboniso nakwimimculo kodwa ndandisazi ukuba yinto nje yokuzonwabisa kwaye andinakuze ndiphilele ukuyenza. Xa i-Game of Thrones yaqala ukusebenza, ilizwe lam lanyikima. UPeter Dinklage wayesenza into engenakwenzeka. Wayethathwa ngokungathi ngumdlali weqonga ngaphandle kokuxhaphaza ukuphakama kwakhe ngexabiso lothuselo okanye isiqhulo. Ngobusuku awaphumelela ngabo uEmmy, ndalila iyure.
Ndifunde ibali kule mpelaveki kwiTumblr malunga nebhinqa eliselula (igama lakhe lomsebenzisi weTumblr ngu-nospockdasgay) owayengumntwana osisiqhwala. Wazalelwa enomlenze ongekhoyo, ngakumbi ingalo yasekhohlo ukusuka engqinibeni ezantsi. Wayesandula ukufika evela kubona UMad Max: Indlela yeFury apho umlingiswa kaCharlize Theron (Imperator Furiosa) naye engekho kwingalo yakhe. Umbhali uthi ndim malunga nje nommeli omkhulu 'wezinto zokumelwa' ezikhoyo, kodwa njengomfazi omhlophe, andizange ndive ukuba isebenza kum konke oko. Ukujonga iNdlela yoMsindo, ndaye ndayiqonda indlela endandingalunganga ngayo ... Ukujonga iNdlela yoMsindo, ndaziva ngathi ndibukele umzabalazo wam ophiliswayo (nangona wawumnandi kakhulu), kwaye andicingi ukuba ndakhe ndayiqonda indlela enzulu ngayo Yiba kum. Umzimba wakhe awuzange ube yindawo yelenqe. Kuvunyelwe nje ukuba kube njalo.
Imicimbi yokumelwa. Yinto elula njengaleyo. Siphila kwihlabathi elinobuhlanga obahlukeneyo, iinkcubeko, iintlobo zomzimba, ukuthanda ezokwabelana ngesondo, kunye namandla ... kutheni le nto singakubonisi oko? Andinanto ngokuchasene nabasetyhini kwezi zinto ziyinyani. Kukho inxenye yam ecinga ukuba kuhle ukuba sinabantu abancinci kumabonwakude nangayiphi na indlela… kodwa ndicinga ukuba sifanelwe ngaphezulu koko. Sifanele ukuba ngamagorha namaqhawekazi, abenzi bobubi, abahlobo abasenyongweni, abamelwane abacaphukisayo. Sifanele ukuba yiyo nantoni na ngaphandle kokutya okupholileyo. Kwakhona, ngokuzingca ngakumbi, ndifuna nje ukuba abantu bayeke ukucinga ukuba ndingomnye wamantombazana kumdlalo. Asibonakali sonke ngokufanayo.
