I’ve been an #a11y advocate for the last 15 years of my career, and I just want to know… is anyone else finding it harder now than ever to do the work we’re passionate about doing? To focus on the humanity of our work beyond the numbers that enable us to continue it?

Angels are everywhere & show up when you need them the most. Today, one by the name of Simra popped up behind the United Airlines desk at Toronto Pearson Airport and made sure I could get home to my family in time. Though seemingly small, my soul desperately needed this display of humanity today.

Do you work in tech and want to rebel against this administration?

Integrate accessibility into your product work, no matter the laws and the bullshit this administration says, no matter what your execs say.

Treat it as a given, don't ask for permission.
