CN: racist and ableist microaggressions from ‘nice’ white people, blood

In the waiting room for blood work today and this white lady several seats away was staring at me.

White lady to my sister: can she move that (in my power chair) on her own?

I've seen a few comments across the internet talking about "Cancelling Lizzo" and that's not what we want - we want to educate her and have the word changed

Today’s #APAHM #GoogleDoodle honors the birthday of disability justice activist, Stacey Park Milbern.

Stacey co-created disability justice to fight for those marginalized within the disabled community—people of color, LGBTQ+, and more

Today is the 45th anniversary of the joyous day that Secretary Califano signed the 504 regulations, unchanged!

Do you know the people in your communities who were involved with supporting the signing of the 504 regulations? Celebrate them.

#EarthDay reminder that things disabled people use, whether to make our lives easier or ensure survival, shouldn't be scapegoated as main causes of climate change.

Instead of shaming people who need pre-cut fruit, focus on urging corporations to shift to sustainable practices.🌎

When Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson joins the highest court in the land, I'm going to rejoice because the greatest country in the world, the United States of America, will be better because of her.

March 12 marks the anniversary of the Capitol Crawl, a direct action by disability advocates to push for the Americans with Disabilities Act. COVID has caused a lot of recent disability advocacy to look different, but our cause is no less urgent than it was in 1990. Lead on!

Strawberries are red,
Candy is sweet,
If you support disability rights,
You should definitely retweet.

How about an #ableism simulation instead? A timed challenge to "get a job" by opening a 50 lb door, filling out a form that's in 4 pt type, interviewing while Metallica plays at top volume, etc.

You start by drinking a Big Gulp w/out knowing if there'll be a toilet.🥤🚽
