Purchase a copy of Walk This Way from Vander Films
"Born with
a congenital birth defect that resulted in the amputation of his legs
at age four, Ron Bachman was subsequently trained to walk on full-leg
prostheses. He struggled with the cumbersome devices at school and in
public for years, while at home and at play he was most comfortable
and agile, using his hands to get around."
"Eventually,
he decided that he didn’t have to walk on legs just because that’s what
other people did. Humorous, engaging and infused with Ron’s rock-n-roll
spirit, this video will encourage all who view it to understand and
appreciate diversity in everyone around them. In this moving and dynamic
film you’ll meet Ron as a four year old prior to his amputations all
the way through to his life as a forty year-old man whose proudest accomplishment
has been to raise his daughter by himself. Today he speaks to audiences
both young and old from around the world about the importance of treating
people with dignity and respect."
"Whether Walk This Way is viewed in the classroom, the boardroom or the living room, Ron’s powerful message stays with you forever!"
