defend, he's tied to the say, my dream is to become a star the world over the more and i'm for everyone to talk about me and guinea. the more like, you know, i'm proud is if you before the final leg of the journey to the german capital, a brief sport of sight seeing the colored cathedral gather and he's getting a teammates have high ins for the upcoming guidance pro. is it the less bit settled and my goal is to make the special lim city. that's a no, it's not a big. they know i'm going to help them grow of the should. he's which be drawn said jello. sporting dreams will become reality. the 2023 special olympics will timothy strive is chapman of the special olympics? is mother eunice founded the event back in 1968, the welcome to

d w. and what was your mother trying to achieve back them all? i think she had a vision that we could end discrimination against people with intellectual disabilities in those days, as i'm sorry to say still today, most people assume a person with an intellectual disability can't learn, doesn't have value, can't be successful in the workplace. she thought that if we could show the ability of people with intellectual disabilities, we could show them as athletes as champions as heroes. that the discrimination would start to yield. and we would start to recognize that everybody has a gift and that was her hope. and how is the event evolved in the 55 years since? well luck. we started in one event in chicago in 1968. today we're a 188 countries. in a normal year, we'd have a $100000.00 special olympics games and communities all around the world where mothers and fathers and volunteers joined together and today with challenging governments to join us in ending the discrimination for far too many, some would estimate as many as 80 percent of children with intellectual

disabilities never go to school ever or at all source because the schools are closed. and so we're trying to challenge governments. they've committed to the c r p d. they've the convention on the rights of people disabilities. they've committed to these goals, but there hasn't been action in most places to make schools inclusive. we believe sport and play can be a vehicle for opening schools. so we're challenge and we want to get to 1000000 new special olympics athletes end of the movement playing what we call unified support children with and without intellectual challenges playing in school and, and sports clubs together. and how does the categorize ation work? you can, you can sort of see how it works and if you're talking about a physical sports or physical disabilities when it comes to intellectual, dis, that disabilities. how does that work? intellectual disability is a little bit of a moving definition, but from a sports point of view, our vision is that you compete against people of equal ability in your own division, a cool physical, mental, well sports ability. so if you run the 120 seconds and i run the 120 seconds,

we raced against the class. if you run it in 30 and i run it and 50, i don't race against you. you race against someone else. ok. i, the goal is to find ways to have everybody have a fair game so that everybody has a chance to win, no matter what their, all, you know, their personal ability might be, doesn't have the profile. uh, yeah, it just gets quite interesting. i guess. guess the width, of course you do have you have the olympics and then the power lympics had a big boost in pop ups and the last 2 or 3 events where they very much bust through . how are you doing at at a busting sir? well, we're always trying to burst through more we, we've very confident that these games in germany will be a great success. we are very confident that this country will embrace the idea that special olympics presents the challenge to be more inclusive in sports clubs and schools. we hope that message will radiate across europe, where our, our brothers and sisters and the olympic and paralympic movement are fantastic allies of ours. we have a distinctive message that for people with intellectual disabilities,

they have something unique to offer school of communities, health care, employment that has still been largely unrecognized. so our challenge is for this population to be seen as valuable and to allow their gifts to enable the rest of us . you know, when we find in schools is if you include a child with an intellectual disability, the other children benefit other children do better academically. the school climate improves children, see that everybody's got gifts and they respond to that message with better performance themselves. which events that you particularly looking forward to? well, tomorrow's opening ceremonies will of course, be extraordinary. we'll have the entire world present a $180.00 plus countries represented not by politicians and not by diplomats or not by scholars, but by the world's most humble people. the world's most open, welcoming and inclusive people. i can't wait to see what that's going to feel like in the lympics stadium that through last on olympic torch and 1936. and in those

games, which were dominated by this specter of a violent, oppressive, and its extraordinarily mean spirited regime today, we now will be welcoming into that same stadium, maybe the legacy of jesse owens, these new pioneers, these new rebels for dignity and inclusion where we wish you well, with that, thank you for spending us the time coming in a special load house in tennessee strive i thank you for having me set you up to date uh, coming up next day on the w. k to folks. and how's your business set up today? have a good day the can you hear me we are all set. we are watching close to the to bring you the story behind the new.
