Check out the slides from my #axecon session, at https://t.co/DtnUliR3NS (Yes, Virginia, PMs Are Responsible for Accessibility). They have a bit more info than the version I submitted earlier for the conference. Thanks for coming out!

Me? I’m Angela Hooker, otherwise known as AccessForAll. I believe in digital equity for everyone and world domination through accessibility…or something like that.

The first thing I ever won off the radio was a pair of tickets to a Van Halen concert. When I say that as a teen I lived for Van Halen, it’s like saying I breathe oxygen. And I had hopeful days because of Johnny Nash. RIP, Eddie and Johnny. #heartbroken

This is the harassment you'll receive as a disabled YouTuber. CW for sure. Retweet/share for awareness of how we get treated online. @theAspergianCom @NeuroRebel @slooterman @TheMightySite @emrazz

I'm saddened to hear about @AccessibleJoe's passing. Every day, many of us enjoy his contributions to accessibility. I'll miss his passion and dedication, not to mention his wit and wisdom. He inspired me--even with his accessible death proposal. #RIP

I'm reeling over Jim Thatcher's passing. He was a great source of knowledge and encouragement in the early days of my accessibility work. Even after a few projects w/him, I was still his fan girl—that never wore off. Nor did his kindness and humble spirit. RIP, Gentle Warrior.

Great info here. I'm not a fan of placeholders (for all the reasons listed) or even hint text below an input. I prefer it directly below the label text. #a11y #accessibility #formDesign

As I read the messages about #GAAD, I'm heartened to know new folks are thinking about #a11y now, and I'm eager to see how they'll use their new knowledge. Without #accessibility , I couldn't work or have a productive life. This grinch's heart grew three sizes today. 😊

Argh! We're missing too many sessions because the rooms aren't large enough to hold the people who want to attend. I can't even get into my own employer's sessions! #CSUNATC2019
