Agir avec responsabilité peut se traduire de multiples façons. L’implication et le dévouement de ces panelistes dans leur travail, pour offrir des espaces sécuritaires et respectueux au public et aux artistes est tellement inspirant. @OutsideMusic @CripRave @RefractionDAO

[MUTEK Montréal @MUTEK_Montreal]

"It’s important to increase the range of what accessibility means. We can’t make spaces accessible without considering how things like racism, ongoing colonization, sexism intersect with ableism to make things inaccessible." - @CripRave on designing accessible live experiences.

@CRIPRAVE's events embody the notion that a few changes can make the difference between disabled ravers staying home out of caution, or going out for a potentially transformative night https://t.co/j4DzF2uD7N

.@ReneeDumaresque was 21 when they started raving and 23 when they developed a chronic pain that made nights out daunting

"It was really powerful to be in a space full of disabled, Deaf and Mad people enjoying themselves and celebrating their community," he says, a relief from the typical disabled experience of skipping parties, or feeling unwelcome after arriving.
