Queering Disability
Have you experienced queerphobia in disability organizing spaces? Or Ablism in queer organizing?
We can - and MUST - do better, and support each other in the process.
Queering Disability aims to create spaces for queer and disabled folks to:
safely have open, honest, raw conversations and share experiences
learn from one another, as well as experts in specific fields
build power and organize
have specific events for only queer/disabled folks, as well as events open to allies
Learn about and take action on policy and legislation that impacts disabled and queer individuals.
If you’d like to be updated on event dates/times/locations, what we’ll be discussing, and guest speakers, hop on the NO-SPAM mailing list!
Most of the work that I do in this arena is unpaid; it is work that I do because it matters deeply to me, impacts me personally, and absolutely lights my fire. That said, I would like to say that disabled folk, as much as anyone else, deserve to be paid for their work. My work should not be held up as an example of how disabled folk should work for free for causes we care about or that matter to us.
With that in mind, if you appreciate the work that I do and would like to support it and me, you can Buy Me A Coffee or join my Substack
