As much as I would love to join a woman’s march in a nearby city, my disabilities/mental health concerns prevent this. My GAD generally leads to panic attacks in large crowds, and because of my PTSD I would really like to avoid putting myself in situations where I may be touched or arrested. I will…

Disabled people deserve better. I am ashamed of a country that has elected a man who has mocked our people, who has stood behind policy decisions which are unambiguously violent toward our people.

I am joining the disability march because I believe America is for ALL the people – the adults and the children who will follow us on this Earth (if we don’t destroy it), for people of all abilities, cultures and religions, all marital statuses and gender identities.  But I am especially marching for those, like…

I have friends marching and I wish we could be with them and other awesome people from Baltimore, MD but we can’t.
