🚨 Important message about captioning your videos that pertains to what’s happening with Palestinians & key updates. Listen to Raven & other #deaf folks who have been urging this for over a week now.

Governors across the country from Hawaiʻi to Florida have been using hotels more and more for noncongregate sheltering after disasters. We need to ensure they are ADA compliant! #DisabilityTwitter

🚝It’s been a very long time since I rode @SFBART and now that I live close to a station it has been liberating to get around the Bay Area without asking people to drive me around! Freedom, baby!

The cartoon wasn’t just in poor taste. It also underlines that disabled people are not treated as full citizens. People do not expect us to have jobs, to get married, to have children. But we do all of those things.

I have had seizures for 64 years and counting. I am appalled when people combine age and having seizures as though they are related or qualify a person’s ability to work. We should fight this stigma, not promote it.

The best way to reduce the number of private lawsuits and protect the rights of disabled Americans, is to make businesses more accessible.
