Just got back from my walk. I had some extra time today so I decided to bring a bag and pick up all the trash I saw. Came back with at least 2lbs of garbage.

My brothers and sisters in Christ, it is 2025. Our climate is in crisis. WHY WHY WHYYYYYY are we still throwing our garbage on the ground?!

Our ancestors gave from sacrifice & solidarity, not wealth. Today, on Give828, we carry that legacy forward. Support Black-led orgs creating the future we deserve.

Lydia (they/them) is a nonbinary, queer, multiply disabled powerhouse leading where justice, tech, and disability meet. From founding the Autistic People of Color Fund to building radical care into everything—they’re reshaping what liberation looks like.

Lydia X. Z. Brown, a nonbinary, East Asian disability advocate with short dark hair, sits center stage in a white upholstered chair. They wear eyeglasses, a black face mask, and a patterned jacket or sweater in dark brown and beige tones with a repeating design, along with dark pants. They hold a microphone in one hand and gesture with the other. Focused lighting highlights Lydia at the center of the scene. Lydia X. Z. Brown, a nonbinary, East Asian disability advocate with shoulder length dark hair and glasses, speaks to a crowd. They wear a dark blue coat and tan gloves over a tan blazer and terra cotta orange top. Behind them, a large sign on a wooden easel reads, “MOURN FOR THE DEAD...AND FIGHT LIKE HELL FOR THE LIVING,” with a list of names below, likely honoring the deceased. The background shows blurred city buildings and bare trees, suggesting a colder season. Lydia X. Z. Brown, a nonbinary, East Asian disability advocate with short dark hair and glasses, speaks during a presentation in a meeting room or auditorium. They wear a bright blue T-shirt with bold dark text reading “You Are Not a Burden,” followed by similar affirmations in smaller font. A microphone is clipped to their shirt, and they gesture with their hands while speaking. Lydia X. Z. Brown, a nonbinary, East Asian disability advocate with short dark hair featuring a teal streak, smiles warmly and looks directly at the camera. They are seated outdoors in front of a softly blurred background of tall white feathery grasses and greenery. They wear a navy blue blazer over a light blue shirt with a patterned tie in shades of blue. A small pink rectangular pin is visible on their lapel.

Brad Lomax was where Black power met disability justice.

A Black Panther with MS, he co-led the 504 Sit-in & co-founded a center for independent living.
His legacy lives in every fight for freedom that centers all of us. ✊🏾♿️
