Alice Wong was one of the most effective people challenging the Whiteness of disability communities and its many flaws, but who believed fiercely in us as a community, in disabled people as oracles.
Alice brought so much to so many of us, it’s hard to measure the kind of gratitude I have for that.

I continue to think it is easy to connect these issues

The usual suspects are telling Dems that Epstein won’t win elections, get back to “affordability” and I think my head might explode. www.offmessage.net/p/force-a-re...

It divides Republicans much more than "affordability" or any other economic issue.

I think that if you say that assaulting a 15-year-old isn’t really pedophilia, or is substantively different/less bad than assaulting a younger child, *on television*, you shouldn’t be able to have a functional life outside your home. People should be telling you what kind of person you are all day.

So, I've been contemplating whether or not to say this, and had hoped I would have a chance to tell Richard this to his face last night, but he bolted out of that room right quick.
But one of the things that's been clear to me since I launched A Better DFL? People are hungry for change.
