New from me: I spoke to disability rights activists & experts about how disabled people of color can survive these troubled times.

Read on to learn about the American origins of eugenics, the hard-won legal protections in jeopardy, and what the community and its allies can do to weather this storm.
Disability rights activists and scholars warn of eugenics echoes in Trump administration health policies
People with disabilities were among the first threatened and harmed by the Trump administration’s dismantling of legal guardrails and federal policies ensuring equitable protections and services.

@jessicaslice.bsky.social‬’s acceptance and identity as disabled brought tremendous freedom. She stopped trying to shoehorn her body into the world and started to adapt her world to her body. #DisabilityVoices
The Ingenuity Of Disability Culture Could Benefit All Parents
Once I identified as disabled, I started to ask the right questions: What do I need? What is available? What can I change?
