The “ethnic” neighborhood

By miwachan

The Constitution of Japan declares the free choice of where to live. But we the disabled people have very few choice to live.  Once the local government decides that the disabled people have to  die,  we can’t  live in the city or town.

I heard that some disabled people moved from Suginami city to Nakano city, because they will be killed by the cruel public welfare if they will stay at Suginami city, although Suginami city is very rich local government. Nakano city is not rich, but there the disabled people live with enough public welfare.

Sometimes I think I’m a wandering exile that is asking the Promised Land where I can live.
