Black ADHD adults face higher rates of criminalization for behaviors that, in white people, are called quirky or creative. this is a racism problem. to address this issue, we need organizations committed to genuine change, this means: examining who gets diagnosed, who gets accommodated, and who gets punished for the same behaviors.

Masks for people with skin sensitivities
I'm doing a post about skin problems + sensitivities with masks
If you have masks recommendations for people with sensitivities because they are neurodivergent and/or have skin problems, please tell me:

@mekkaokereke Yup, and the Black Panthers practiced solidarity, too! For example, the nascent disability rights movement in the United States was helped out by the Black Panthers.
Early disability rights activists credit the Panthers with giving them advice and support, as well as spreading word about their organizing. The Panthers also brought food every day to the Section 504 sit-in.

I made the claim that the FBI declared the Black Panthers dangerous, not because they were Black nationalists or supremacists. They weren't.
They were dangerous because they preached racial *solidarity*.
But don't take my word for it!
Listen to Fred Hampton's own words.
Turn on closed captions.

Gelebte Solidarität statt Pinkwashing! ✊💜
München sonnt sich gerne im Glanz der „Rainbow City“, doch für viele von uns ist das Leben in der teuersten Stadt Deutschlands ein täglicher Überlebenskampf. ⬇️

"Mutual aid and community care feel like the strategies we need to prepare and meet the ongoing struggle. The people who are going to be most harmed are queer and trans disabled folks, Black and Brown disabled folks, disabled migrants, and disabled undocumented folks. We need to understand the intersections of these systems and how they harm people, and we need to work across movements." ~ Dom Kelly
"Faced with this overwhelm, it is becoming more important than ever for individuals to organize in their communities, develop relationships with neighbors, and find ways to support one another. The struggle for disability justice intersects with the fights for racial and climate justice, safety for our immigrant neighbors & trans siblings, and a dignified life for all people. By organizing across movements, we can build the liberatory future we all deserve."

"Since Donald Trump marched back into the White House in January 2025, his administration has waged an all-out war on disabled people. Trump has issued executive orders rolling back civil rights protections, slashed funding for vital services and support, and advocated for legislation that would ramp up institutionalization."
Last week Trump called Tim Walz the ‘R slur’.
He then doubled down on it, and now his base have begun harassing the entire Walz family.
Memes are circulating on socials encouraging people to drive past their house and yell it at them.
I’ve been personally called that word more than 1,000 times in the last seven days.
We can’t allow this to happen. The disability community has fought far too hard for far too long to remove that word from the public vernacular.
This is ableism at it’s most ugly, and ableism feeds eugenics and eugenics feeds fascism.
Help us fight back. We are not expendable.

Question for Disabled people/people with disabilities, Deaf, Mad and Sick people:
What things do you do on a regular basis to affirm your own realness to yourself?
To make clear to yourself that your body exists,
and by its very existence is worthy of existence,
and also of care, love, and resources?
To be an alive human in your own perception?
To reaffirm your personhood in your own mind?
To be fully inside softness and joy?
I’m not talking about the shit we have to go through to prove to others that we exist. I mean the things we do for ourselves, to make ourselves real for ourselves.
I would be grateful if you wanted to share any rituals, habits, interactions, methods of healing and care, creations, collections, shouts….

Join GOAT's project to customize Andrei's wheelchair, so he can go outside again and roll independently! It takes a pit crew (and donors) to repair and modify assistive technology, and do it right.
