I take my meals with clods and poets, but I am seldom certain which is which.

I was raised in an atmosphere of frightening religious hypocrisy.

That’s why I’m so thankful to be part of this. This work actually looks like Jesus to me.

Instead of just rehearsing the failings, I want to be part of something beautiful. Healing? I’m in.

Both @WellsFargo and No Barriers recognize the importance of diversity and social inclusion for the future of our workforces, the health of our communities and global impact. Thank you, Wells Fargo for your continued support!

@jeffprobst Also did I mention… thanks again for the Audio Description on your episodes on P+. #a11y

[Erin J. @BrailleErin]

@JeffProbst Noelle is inspirational because she showed grit, not because she has carbon fiber on her leg. I loved watching her and I hope she continues to pursue her dreams.

[Erin J. @BrailleErin]

Dear @JeffProbst FYI “Obviously you’re inspirational because of your leg” is as offensive as, for example, “obviously you’re undereducated because you’re black” would be if you said that. #InspirationPorn #WeAreNotYourInspiration

@snoqualmiepass is eastbound still open even though the roadside sign says closed?

Guy sitting next to me at the jazz concert moved down six seats rather than let a blind person squeeze past him. 🙄

Watching #originalTopGun with DD17. #CulturalEducation

[Erin J. @BrailleErin]

Dear @Insider , Could you do a @MollyBOfficial rates/reviews blind characters in movies? Would be hilarious and educational. Could add a drinking game whenever they #FeelFaces or #CountSteps or use a #ZombieStare . Pleeeease??

[Erin J. @BrailleErin]

For all those who think that people with a disability cannot compete, why don’t you give us a chance to try. We might surprise you. #Survivor43 #RepresentationMatters

[Erin J. @BrailleErin]

And yes, I saw that there is a person with a disability cast on #Survivor43 Possibly bringing the percentage of disabled cast members up to 0.15%

[Erin J. @BrailleErin]

Think about this for a minute
% of Black people in the US: 13%
%of Black people cast on Survivor: 26%
% of Black people win survivor: 10%
And how about
% of disabled people in the US: 26%
% of disabled people cast on Survivor: 0.1%
% of disabled winners: 0%

Congratulations to Maryanne Oketch on winning #Survivor 42! Well done!

[Erin J. @BrailleErin]

And blind accessible games? You know, the ones that don’t even exist yet? #MyDaughterWantsToPlayMinecraftWithHerFriendsPleazzzzz

[Erin J. @BrailleErin]

Big-name Studio: we won’t produce CODA unless you use hearing actors with star power. #MarleeMatlin puts her foot down and says no! Deaf actors in deaf roles. Studio dumps. Movie gets made indie anyway. Movie wins Best Picture. Sure hope Studio is taking notes.

[National Federation of the Blind @NFB_voice]

Keep up with the Blind Driver Challenge and all important efforts of the organized blind movement by joining the Federation. #CruisinWithNFB https://t.co/e1pdbTCprV

[Erin J. @BrailleErin]

And the Oscar FINALLY goes to… a disabled actor in a disabled role. #CODA #TroyKotsur Well done guys!

[Erin J. @BrailleErin]
