Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Alice Schonfeld

In regards to the movement for deletion of article entitled 'Alice Schonfeld' I would like to throw in my two cents in this debate It is important that history tell stories like that of Alice Schonfeld because they remind us that we need not look at the world only through a narrow set of perspectives, or be blinded by normative modes of thinking; that is the assumption that someone who is blind cannot read, or someone who has no legs cannot play team sports. . I have had the privilege of seeing Alice schonfeld work in person four years ago at the show entitled “Art Ability” at the Lyceum Theater in San Diego. In my opinion her work is both moving and inspirational, and I would argue she maintains a place of importance as a figure of inspiration for people like me that are affected by severe disability. Much like Alice, I was told by many doctors that I would never play the piano again; however I was able to find a way to adapt my technique to what remained of my ability. If those who write history believe they can forget all who do not conform, perhaps history is not worth writing after all. Just one man's opinion; take it for what it is worth.
