The pandemic will end. In one way or another "The Covid Pandemic" will become a piece of history. What we will be left with is the memory of how we responded to it, of how we behaved. Protect each other and you will never be afraid to look back at this time and remember.

just remembered when the govt hired someone with an overt history of publishing pro eugenic positions and the appt was rescinded due to the backlash but now only those with good GCSEs are being allowed funding to go to university bc GCSEs are apparently a litmus for IQ?

Replying to @AddyAdelaine @criposium
Highly recommend @azeezatj @khankfarza and @TripleCripples. @SuriyaAisha is also doing amazing work in this area and recommend their podcast Sickbabe. I also write on the connections between colonialism, culture and disability. 💛

Hi - another day, another question. Can anyone name some Black or Minority Ethnic UK scholars who write about race & disability please? Looking for stuff about race & disability, but most things seem to be written about the US context and I don't have diversity in authorship yet

📢We're calling on Disabled people! How does having to pay for care affect you? What do you have to go without? What could you do if you didn't have to pay for care? We need to make some noise. Please share your experiences using this hashtag: #MakeTheCapCare
Two photos of Konnor a young disabled adult with the following text: Like most young people Konnor enjoys going out. But unlike most others he needs support to achieve this. But the high care charges he has to pay the council in return means that he cannot afford to continue to do the things he enjoys #MakeTheCapCare

People with learning disabilities 8x more likely to die with #covid; those with Down's Syndrome much more at risk. "Vulnerable people have been thrown to the wolves in this pandemic...they are the tier 2 people...all they've got is 'stay at home'" @doctor_oxford @IndependentSage

i hear a lot about medical worker burnout due to the pandemic. i'm not hearing about disabled people's burnout. how do you think we're feeling after almost 2 years of being told it's fine if we die?
