Man at bus stop seeing me, a wheelchair user: “I don’t have time to wait for a wheelchair to get on.” Wheelchair users know about waiting.The resistance to us riding buses kept them inaccessible for years. Your wait is minimal. Our wait for access persists.

When you equate disabled people with burden, the lives of disabled people are always in jeopardy.

When I see a delivery bot parked on a sidewalk, I worry about wheelchair access. My worst fear came true in Miami Beach near Lincoln Road. I walked up & even pushed this—it didn’t budge. Do all of these endanger the lives of wheelchair users by pushing them into the street? #ADA

Don’t assume that you know the access and accommodation that disabled people need. Ask disabled people.

Access for disabled people is not a burden. It is the excluders rightfully bearing the cost of eliminating the barriers that exclude disabled people.

Where’s the line between protest and lawbreaking? In this week’s InfluenceWatch Podcast, Michael Watson, Sarah Lee, and Robert Stilson discuss how tax-exempt nonprofits push activism past the point of legality—and what it means for accountability.

Once you have called disabled people a burden, you have facilitated the devaluation, dehumanization and death of disabled people.

Hospital employee to me, a wheelchair user: “You’ll be happy. We are building a ramp here for disabled people.” Access for and accommodation of disabled people is not a gift or advantage. It is the remedy to combat the past and continuing exclusion of disabled people.

Opposition to euthanasia & assisted suicide is not a left or right thing. People with very different worldviews share this perspective. They are always thoughtful - very unlike the breathless reacting, emoting & projecting of proponents. Good read. https://t.co/1jPzZ0MaJF

For disabled people, access is not a benefit, gift, extra or advantage. Access is the undoing of barriers and exclusion and the provision of entry and opportunity to disabled people, who constitute approximately 25% of the population.

Limited or partial access for disabled people is not access. It is exclusion.
