🌟 Allyship: Stand Up, Speak Out 🌟

Allyship is a proactive commitment to supporting historically underrepresented communities. It means taking action against injustice and amplifying their voices.
🧠 Reflect: How can you use your platform to support these communities?
📚 Learn More: Educate yourself on systemic inequalities and how they impact different communities.

Saying you won't vote because there aren't good choices, that's privilege.

Complaining about the system but still being comfortable enough to not do anything about it, that's privilege.

Engage.

Make the best choices you can, then dig in and work for better choices.

We need you.
We need everyone.

We need to ally ourselves to those who know oppression and know that progress requires struggle

"Finally, Black people should welcome co-conspirators to this fight who show up and put themselves on the line, not allies or saviors. John Brown was most certainly a co-conspirator when he raised up with Black and white people and sought to destroy the slave industrial complex."

☝️ okay I have found somebody local-ish to help me figure out how to vote.
But I want to share:
One of the ideas we discussed was asking the local candidate to give me a ride which is awesome, but possibly better is asking the incumbent fuckwit to give me a ride. My vote is private afterall. 😃

So if you were looking for some subversive #disabilityJustice there's that.

Also, pls check in and help your spoonie friends #vote in whatever way they need. #allyship #a11y

☝️ I am so fekkin tired of people carefully explaining to me why something is hard for disabled people. We KNOW.

What we need is for you to turn around and say to the people making the decisions (even within your own business or org):

📢"Oi! This shit is hard for disabled people. Fix it!"

We need your advocacy, not your head pats.
