"Efforts to hear disabled voices, see us, and do the [work is] laudable. But there’s a deeper layer in philanthropy that involves coming to terms with its history of the charity model, core power dynamics, and relationship with poverty and consent."-@IngridTischer #ableism👏👏👏

[Dr. DoLess, Napmore Institute @DoctorDoLess]

What would #philanthropy look like w/out the #ableism, #WhiteSupremacy, and income inequality in its history, choices, and fundamental outlook?

This is a type of transformational question that #disabilityinclusion opens the door to.

Devastating news on the leaked #SCOTUS draft opinion reversing #RoeVWade. We must fight to protect access to safe abortions and reproductive justice for ALL #AbortionRights #AbortionIsHealthcare #BansOffOurBodies

[She the People @_shethepeople]

Overturning Roe v. Wade doesn’t mean abortions will stop.

It means women, and mainly women of color will no longer have access to a SAFE means of terminating their pregnancy, further impeading on their health and safety. #BansOffOurBodies
