A TikTok video appears to be down. Please stay in our lane. Our peers, yours & mine, *not* Black women, let this nation down.

Jasmine Crockett is doing the work. Calling her out and disrespecting her is outrageous.

Pls don’t just remove your video, make it right.

Today's featured book is Black Disability Politics by @drsamischalk.bsky.social, published by @dukepress.bsky.social.

The book explores how issues of disability have been and continue to be central to Black activism from the 1970s to the present.

Kelly’s article is worth reading multiple times to fully comprehend & apply. But start with once.

What a season it could be if each and everyone opens their eyes to see, accept, and include those around them in ways that they can participate.

Thank you for this article. I deeply desire non-disabled folk will read it and that it will sink in making a difference in the lives of many.

Wishing you peace and joy!

I’ve been quiet here & the other place. Covid finally hit the household mid-Nov. Immunology said my immune system tanked right before the infection. Working on approvals for IGG infusions & radically resting.

I’d be so much happier if everyone did this. Lots of benefit from pascal case. #Accessibilty

This whole thread.
I would suggest that in addition to the forms of family violence described here, we add the entire #adoption industry, which took its modern form less than a century ago, in no small measure owing to the tireless efforts of a literal child thief and trafficker named Georgia Tann.
