1IN4 is on a mission to make film festivals more accessible, and we’re excited to report on the progress at the Festival de Cannes (@Festival_Cannes).
🧵
For disabled people, including those with temporary disabilities, mobility aids and assistive devices such as casts, braces, canes, and sensory headphones help us navigate the world.
Don’t miss out on this wonderful opportunity. I have been a judge for the film challenge for a number of years. I have to tell you that there are certain films and performances that I will never forget. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Because I'm blind, an airline is saying I have to sit alone. We booked side-by-side seats. But when they found out I'm blind, they separated us. They're claiming it's their policy 1/7 #RightsOnFlights
There needs to be harsh consequences for any business that has policies that discriminate against people with disabilities. This #Airline has no idea who they are dealing with and the enormous following and community that love her. Please retweet this.
