The Future Is Disabled

A lot of people are moving through the world wounded with their guard all the way up and they are leaning into normalcy. We have a great deal to learn from disability justice organizers about how we can build a future predicated on inclusion and reciprocal care rather than a system that is maintained by exclusion and disposability. I recommend following Leah Lakshmi Piapsna-Sumrahsina's advice and asking yourself what's one step you can take today or this week to move toward that world. Remember our best defense against cynicism is to do good and to remember that the good we do matters until next time I'll see you in the streets.
