I was wondering if anyone could help me out with some examples of protest or similar at how fictional disabled characters are portrayed - in fiction of the written variety in particular, but also tv, film, etc. Online activism is fine, but I'm looking for more than criticism - so a co-ordinated email writing campaign would be great, but a single blog post is not what I'm looking for.

I'm looking for things relating primarily to the character, rather than the choice of actor or the accessibility of the medium, cos apparently I am Not Allowed to put everything in the world in my thesis.

Recently, I wrote a fic for an old movie called The Goonies. It deals with things I don't have personal experience with and I was wondering whether anyone here could help or knew where to find help making sure that the story is accurate and respectful.
