(1 point) during the 1990s, people with disabilities began to organize. the deaf poets society has been met with strong and effective opposition. people with disabilities often have a difficult time telling their own stories. the term disabled has different meanings to different people.

Explanation:

The passage starts with the statement “Someone is always trying to control our narrative” which implies that people with disabilities face challenges in telling their own stories. The other options are either not the main focus (e.g., people with disabilities began to organize - the passage is more about the narrative aspect rather than just the act of organizing; the Deaf Poets society facing opposition - not the central idea; the term 'disabled' having different meanings - not the core message).

Answer:

People with disabilities often have a difficult time telling their own stories.
