I hope that @danjlevy will read this article about the MDA Telethon which discusses his involvement with it, -- i.e., how it goes against social justice efforts -- and will learn from it @SchittsCreek @DisVisibility @mssinenomine

4/4: Either directly or indirectly, @KevinHart4real benefited from the appearance of people with #NMD. Hart was either paid, or his charity received a portion of the funds raised. Did people donating know that part of their $ was going to

3/4: @KevinHart4real didn't host this event for free, and undeniably people with neuromuscular disabilities were featured to advance the request for donations. To me, this looks exploitive.

2/4: One of the central criticisms of this type of fundraising is that it promotes #Exploitation of the disabled people featured. MDA says that the telethon is "reimagined" but I don't see how that can be true…

1/4: Concerning the recent telethon, one thing missing from the news coverage & social media , is a description of the financial terms of the agreement between @KevinHart4real and @MDAorg.

@MDAorg":Normal." "Normal." "Normal." "Normal." "Normal."

Today there were 2 online events, #MDAKevinHartTelethon and @sinsinvalid’s #WeLoveLikeBarnacles
They couldn’t be more different in how they frame disability and the messages they share about the lived experience

"At no charge to their families" ... @MDAorg LIES!! #MDAKevinHartTelethon #EndTheTelethon #TurnOffPity

Cada vez que veo a algún actor/personaje famoso/whatever tuitear sobre el #MDAKevinHartTelethon se me cae el alma a los pies. Es ver cómo cualquier cosa conseguida nos la pueden quitar en un abrir y cerrar de ojos. Qué horror que lo hayan resucitado. #EndTheTelethon #TurnOffPity

This one's for my muscular dystrophy siblings who are told you're not wanted the way you are.

We are excited to share this powerful piece of writing by our latest feature in Smith’s Showcase, @Aubrie_Lee! “A letter to my younger self” explores self-identity, disability pride, and the power of community. We hope you love it as much as we do!

7/ The @MDAorg also has terrible ratings from multiple charity evaluators. They pay their executives far too much and do far too little to actually help the people they exploit for pity. #TurnOffPity #EndTheTelethon #ShameOnMDA
It’s wrong to exploit children for money.
It’s wrong to demean children by making them objects of pity. For money.
It’s wrong to manipulate people into donating to these children, when much of the money lines the pockets of a charity’s top executives.
