This Saturday April 6 at 6:30pm ET! We're excited about our virtual panel with @RjMitte, @maryfashik, @sheabutterfemme, and @Rasheeradiara. Registration is open now! This will be recorded for a podcast series slated for release in the fall. REGISTER: ow.ly/5kyC50R62Gg
"There is no Disability Justice without the most marginalized voices being centred."- @maryfashik, founder @upgradeaccessi1 #DisabilityJustice #WeAreBillionStrong #DisabilityInclusion #a11y #Equity #AXSChat
We are so proud and excited to announce the launch of our Plain Language Policy Dashboard! The dashboard is a tool that translates complex bills from Southern states into plain language. Take a look! newdisabledsouth.org/policydashboard
October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month and we’re looking for stories about segregated employment from disabled people in the South. If you have a story to share, please visit this link! forms.gle/Ly11ngV65f2pAv…
For @inthesetimesmag I wrote about disabled voting. I shared about my wife’s grandmother, a Black woman who gained her right to vote on her 28th birthday - the day the VRA became law. June 2020 was the first election since where she wasn’t allowed to vote. inthesetimes.com/article/voting…
“Disaster preparedness” rarely, if ever, includes the disabled and chronically ill community. They are too often left behind.
There’s a sad irony in the fact that many in disabled and chronically ill community have been saying that the pandemic isn’t over and asking people to continue to mask and no one listened. Now that COVID is “surging again,” people are being urged to mask again.
“COVID is surging again.” COVID has never gone away. Society and government just chose to ignore it. The disabled and chronically ill community warned that doing that would lead to more surges.
Happy August! Check out the curated list of #events, happenings, festivals, and #learning opportunities for #August! belagaytan.com/hello-august-2… ID: Beach at sunset with "Hello August" and "Bela Gaytán". #HelloAugust #CommunitySupport #FreeResources
How the disabled community can work towards collective liberation: Bridge the gap between social justice and Disability Justice. Stop putting leaders in the community on pedestals. Amplify multi-marginalized voices.
I've built a hub of resources for folks who are #unemployed. I will update it as I curate more resources, as well as when folks alert me to services that I can add. belagaytan.com/unemployment-r… #Unemployment #CommunitySupport #MutualAid
Disabled Natives: I'm going to be presenting on the ADA for a Native org and I'd like to share a few stories from other Disabled Natives about their experiences of being Disabled in NDN Country, barriers that exist because as sovereign nations the ADA does not always apply, etc.
Mmmhmmm ok…
There’s a lot of talk about being “in community with others” from the leaders of marginalized communities, but very little actual inclusion of the disabled community.
We're looking for disabled artists in the South! We are hosting our first annual gala in November, and we're looking to commission artists to design elements of the event, including centerpieces and more. Interested in learning more? Email us at [email protected].
Just a note. This account is on the other app. Until that one is accessible, things will be cross-posted. It’s @ UpgradeAccessibility there.
Something that needs to be repeated (yet again) on International Non-Binary People’s Day: Non-binary disabled/chronically ill people exist. They have a right to have their whole identities respected and honored. They also should be a part of important conversations.
“Liberty and justice for all.” Unless you’re disabled and want the liberty to marry a partner. Unless you’re disabled and want the liberty to have more than $2000 in assets. Unless you’re disabled and seek justice under the protection of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Anyone know of any #disability orgs that give medical scholarships and are including $$ for out of state travel covering gender affirming care for trans folks and abortions for pregnant people? #ADA2023
Thank you for the information. Now we wait anxiously.

"Disability is messy, political, not palatable, and intersects at every identity," says @maryfashik from @upgradeaccessi1. She couldn't be more right. We must continue fighting for #accessibility, #equity, and inclusivity for disabled folks.
Disabled Natives: I'm going to be presenting on the ADA for a Native org and I'd like to share a few stories from other Disabled Natives about their experiences of being Disabled in NDN Country, barriers that exist because as sovereign nations the ADA does not always apply, etc.
@Imani_Barbarin @upgradeaccessi1 Not to mention this design is absolutely ridiculous. How am I supposed to tilt my wheelchair back?
This a brilliant post from @upgradeaccessi1 last year. It tells us the truth about the #DisabilityPrideMonth which is a real shame. Are any companies or celebrities this year keen to spread the news to others?
If you want to learn more about #DisabilityJustice I recommend following these accounts @DrFrancesRyan - her book Crippled: Austerity and the Demonisation of Disabled People is on my list atm @upgradeaccessi1 @chroniciconicj @JamPrescod 4/4
Like @upgradeaccessi1 says: DISABILITY IS POLITICAL
@upgradeaccessi1 Damn straight. I only started using it last summer and my anxiety is way down, alcohol consumption reduced to almost nil and it helps my migraines.
On #InternationalWomansDay your data fails to show the full picture if women with disabilities are not factored into your work. I’d tweet more but I’m headed to the funeral for a disabled woman who had to work until her death because of economic inequality.
Twitter, 1 pandemic and 3 years later - i did it! Passed my driving test first time 🥹 ✅
November - I occasionally became a surrogate. This was with leaders in the film industry - Landed one of my fav. stories highlighting often ignored issues in our disability community - Leader’s concession speech made me proud 🥹 - A few days later, joined the runoff
Thank you all for your support and incredible excitement the past week! We heard many of you about expanding our work to Virginia. We’ll now be working in 14 states, including Virginia 💪🏼 In the South and want to join our coalition? Email [email protected]
Yesterday afternoon this account had 15 followers. Today we’ve got over 1,400. Disabled folks in the South are fired up and fighting back 💪🏼 Thank you all for the support!
I just learned 60,000 people die a year because of bedsores. Something totally preventable, but extremely hard to treat. Where's the innovation prize for solving this mess?
Over the summer, @staceyabrams also appeared on Brunswick, Georgia resident @maryfashik’s podcast The Politics of Disability where she made clear her vision for a Georgia where disabled people can thrive. (9/) thepoliticsofdisability.buzzsprout.com/1771229/109379…
