Hello museum world! I used to be active on museum/heritage twitter, fell off for a bit, and now have finally joined this site. 😁🏳️🌈📚🌿
I'd love to connect with any other early career museum folks, anyone working on disability/inclusion, or just anyone who's passionate about heritage.

I am a lover of graveyards and, living in Cambridge, I am lucky enough to be able to visit the graves of interesting and impressive people on the regular. Today, for #DisabilityHistoryMonth, I'd like to share the beautiful gravestone of Henry Fawcett, buried in the churchyard in Trumpington. (1/2)

"But I don't need to know how your brain works".
A common comment, when autistic people talk about the need to explain that we're autistic.
Mmm.
Let's explain a bit of everyday life. Thread.
I am invited into a meeting with e.g. 7 people whose brains function in 'typical' ways/

This year's #UKDHM theme is Disability Livelihood and Employment & that includes... strikes! Here are workers at the Bristol Blind Asylum going on strike to demand a pay increase in 1912. Here, blind workers did jobs like weaving baskets and mats to sell. It ran from the late 18thC to the 1960s.
