People with developmental disabilities
are dying of AIDS, dealing with unwanted pregnancy and becoming infected
with a broad spectrum of STD’s. This video gives straightforward
instructions about how to put on a condom. Steve, the narrator, discusses
disease and disease transmission in a concrete way. He talks in plain
language that is fully respectful of the needs of the viewer. His ability
to make a connection with viewers was seen in Hand Made Love. The guidebook
includes a discussion about the opportunities that people with disabilities
have to be sexually responsible and presents two very important facts
regarding people with developmental disabilities and sexuality. There are a
series of clear photographs of Steve putting on a condom with accompanying
text that is simple to read and can be used in conjunction with the video.

A
man with an IQ of 49, who had confessed to a murder in Georgia, sat on the witness
stand. “Jerome, did you assassinate President Lincoln?”
“Yes”, Jerome said. “Did you assassinate President
Kennedy?” “Yes”, Jerome said. Incidents like this
demonstrate that people with retardation or similar disabilities –
whether they are guilty or innocent of the crimes they are accused of
committing – often can be shockingly defenceless when caught in America’s
criminal justice system. Focusing on this tragic dilemma, Unequal Justice?
Helps readers address the critical question: Did the system treat this
person with disabilities as other citizens are treated when charged with a
crime?
