Similar to the labels quote, the phrase “Nothing about us, without us” has been popular in marginalised groups.
“Autism Speaks” comes to mind.
I had never heard of this phrase before but I like it because it summarises the issue of people of marginalised groups not being involved in decision making and I hate that issue because only the people of those marginalised groups know what they need best but they aren’t given an opportunity to be involved
