comrade crip

The most important thing is to keep trying and GIVE YOURSELF GRACE. Can’t say that last bit enuff. Ignore the inner-critic and be proud of yourself for showing up for others, no matter what that looked like. Remember you are NOT a burden but actually, your perspective and experience holds tremendous value that you can offer your comrades when organizing—in whatever capacity is comfortable for you.

In fact, that’s why it’s important that you DO show up: All organizing should be neurodiversity-affirming and open to ALL disabled comrades; so at the very least, we as disabled people can help ensure that organizing is as inclusive as possible. (The ableds and neurotypicals usually never think about that stuff.)

correct. this has been known.
