Man in motorized wheelchair: dark skin tone Emoji

People

A dark-skinned man seated in a motorized wheelchair with a joystick controller visible. This icon depicts a power chair, distinct from a manual version like ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿฆฝ, and highlights the use of electronic mobility aids.

Usage Context

Used to discuss accessibility, mobility, and the daily experiences of people who use power chairs. It acts as a primary identifier for people navigating the world with motorized assistance, whether in personal or public transportation discussions.

History

This emoji was added to the Unicode standard in 2019 as part of a push by advocacy groups to improve inclusive representation in digital communication. It was built by combining the man emoji, the motorized wheelchair base, and the dark skin tone modifier to provide a more accurate reflection of the diverse community of power-chair users.
