So you added an accessibility statement to your website...now what? Here's a throwback to a post I wrote about ways your statement can lead to real accessible change on your website. https://t.co/nwgXLvWFmL

Cut out the jargon, and write accessible, clear content. Tools like https://t.co/VVha5BXVPM can let you know when your language is getting too complicated.

I’m so used to blind people saying they thought I was white, it doesn’t surprise me now. When you do image descriptions, don’t skip race. Don’t leave room for harmful assumptions. This is #intersectionality. I made a video on inclusive descriptions

Come hangout with me tomorrow at NTC! I'll be talking about what accessibility is and what it's not, looking at ways to bake it into what you're already doing, and share a secret ingredient to help you be an a11y champion at your org. @NTENorg #21NTC https://t.co/DTe69loNbq

We counted a 50% increase in white supremacist hate groups last year. It’s time to educate yourself about hate and extremism in the US. Our new podcast can help. Listen to #SoundsLikeHatePod on 8/10.

I heard Haben speak earlier this year and loved her. Just finished reading her memoir, "Haben," and I can't recommend it enough: so funny, thoughtful and it really made me think about human connection.

Hey @ezufelt! Today I reviewed a bunch of donation form pages for nonprofits that are currently using Blackbaud, and they have a ton of accessibility errors. Do you know of any alternatives out there?

[Jules Khong @makeseekdo]

@marcvangend @thinkshout @ADANational @marcvangend Absolutely! I'm working on another post about content creation. And https://t.co/14PLHQLG1T is great for testing readability. This post was focusing on testing content when you're not the content creator, and is by no means comprehensive. Thanks for the feedback :)

Myth about disability…

Disability is either a tragedy or incredibly inspirational - “You went to the supermarket!?”

[ThinkShout @thinkshout]

Life isn’t impossible with a disability, you just have to figure out a different way to do things. The social stigma is more difficult to manage than anything. - @theblindcook #DrupalAccessibility @DrupalConNA

[Jules Khong @makeseekdo]

@mikeyil It depends on who I'm talking to. If it's a client or someone less familiar with accessibility, I'll spell it out so they know what I'm saying.
