The Story of Christopher Diaz part 1 (video)

Happy Wednesday!

I found this really amazing fan made video by Killiarious Youtube that includes scenes from 9-1-1 that focus on Christopher Diaz as well as his parents Eddie and Shannon (and Evan "Buck" Buckley). Since it's Disability Pride Month, I wanted to post this video of one of my favorite characters. It's a little long (over 30 minutes) but it's really good. One thing I like about 9-1-1 is the writers don't ignore Christopher's disability but it's not the only thing they focus on for him.

Christopher is an interesting character because he's a well-rounded and complex character. He's allowed to be a smart, funny, caring, thoughtful, creative and wonderful kid. Which is why I like that this video also included scenes of Christopher being upset and angry because no one is happy and positive all the time. I'm really looking forward to seeing how his story will continue in the upcoming sixth season.
