Reverend Jesse Jackson was one of America’s greatest patriots. He spent his life summoning all of us to fulfill the promise of America and building the coalitions to make that promise real.

Disability scholar here yet again to remind you that dropping COVID protections and getting “back to normal” facilitated their vision.

It’s exhausting to point out yet again that abandoning disabled people is eugenics, and eugenics feeds the rise of fascism and to have most ppl just…ignore it
