“Yeah, they totally do...” continued another friend on my Birthright trip this summer. We were picking crops on a kibbutz in Israel when I overheard this disturbing statement. I was finding it hard to believe my friends were capable of making such a degrading and ignorant statement.

London, 2012: Fluorescent lights shine down on the clay track. 8 runners line up for their 400m race in a stadium filled to the brim with onlookers. Most eyes, though, are on the runner in yellow and green. They call him “the fastest man on no legs”. This is a big race for Oscar Pistorius, and though he is eliminated in the semi-finals, he has made history as the first amputee to compete in track at the Olympics.
