Vivian Haun: Do what resonates with you the most. It's all an ecosystem. There are different roles that each of us can play in this movement. There's complaints you can file, there's protests you can join. There's outside and inside.

Regents' Lecture Q&A - There are students sleeping in the hallways of one of our administrative buildings. How do we keep an administration accountable that continues to fall short of providing the bare minimum of access needs to their students? #DisruptingAbleism
