The Revolution Will Be Accessible
Lady Gaga's game-changing new video is a blueprint for what authentic inclusivity looks like in pop culture.
This is not what I was going to write about today. However, if you are any flavor of neurodivergent you’ll understand that moment when you have picked up something that no one else has figured out yet. “I don’t know what, but something’s happening and I think it’s important!”
I’m having that moment right now.
Gaga just redefined what inclusive art looks like. Her latest song isn't just breaking records; it's breaking barriers. The choreography by Parris Goebel includes clear adaptations for different mobility levels, turning what could've been just another dance trend into a genuine everyone-is-welcome moment.
Spend just 5 minutes watching the videos under #abracadabra on TikTok. The absolute fucking joy of people realizing they can do the choreography, no matter how their body is shaped or works, is nothing short of extraordinary.
And, as if we needed another reason to love mother, Gaga is out there in the comments, having real conversations with fans about the song, reposting videos, and amplifying disabled voices. That's not PR – that’s community building with real impact.
The symbolism woven through the video takes on deeper meaning when you see how intentionally inclusive it is. We're watching cultural evolution in real time, where artistic excellence meets genuine representation. It's creating ripples way beyond music, sparking conversations about how art can truly welcome everyone to the party.
Future thesis papers will likely be written on the cultural impact of Abracadabra.
This is a blueprint for what authentic inclusivity looks like in pop culture. And the best part? The song fucking slaps. 🎵 Check out the video below.
