#Disability is part of the human condition and must be part of diversity efforts. Shame on @SECGov and @Nasdaq for not recognizing this basic fact. #ableism (tweet + thread below tells the story, including all who pushed for a different result)

As always, @jennylayfluffy reminds us what the goal is. Technology that is "not just accessible not just compliant, but usable and door opening" for disabled employees, customers and the public. #A11y #AreYouIn

Judge Jack Weinstein dead at 99: A wonderful US judge who understood that digital accessibility is key to #disabled people’s inclusion in society. Here’s one example from a 2017 web access case. #a11y lflegal.com/2017/08/ny-web…

AccessiBe, the company that says it uses AI to use one line of code to make websites accessible for blind people, also has a contentious relationship with blind people who say their feedback on how the product hasn’t worked for them was taken as hostility nbcnews.com/tech/innovatio…

Great article featuring deaf scholars ⁦@jahochcam⁩ & ⁦@MichaelSkyer⁩ abt how we sign differently on zoom due to spatial constraints. I do this too, but hadn’t been conscious of it! scientificamerican.com/article/the-co…

I've heard this often: "But we CAN'T do any testing with people with disabilities at this stage... it's a prototype and you can't use it with a screen reader" For your consideration: 1. This statement assumes that the only reason to include people with disabilities is to test.

Since vaccinations began in late 2020, we expected them to show up first in our Long-Term-Care data. And it finally has. We’ve seen signs over the last few weeks that vaccines, along with a broader decrease in community spread, are having a rapid, positive impact in LTCs.

And at least in my area, many nursing home workers are recent immigrants, who must also labor under the difficulty of having English as a second language, and who are extra-vulnerable to being exploited by unethical nursing home owners and admins.

Having been through a rough episode myself I am lucky to have found specialized deaf mental health services with therapists who sign - I just can’t imagine doing this with interpreters. Specialized mental health care for deaf people is so important yet scarcely available.

Me, wasting time and energy sending countless emails back and forth with organization, technical team and interpreters to make sure I have remote access to an online meeting - that’s even without the actual preparation for the meeting. Hearing colleague arriving at the meeting:
