I cannot attend the march in DC or any of the sister marches near me, not because of my own disabilities, but because of my son’s. He is on the autism spectrum and has sensory processing issues, and does not do well in large, noisy crowds–so I can’t take him to a protest. Instead, I…

I join the Disability March because I care about access to a full life, with inclusion in society. I was lucky to be educated under IDEA, and want people who follow me to have this same opportunity.  Our experience of disability and inclusion adds to disability culture and the culture at large. I believe we have…

I have MS. I cannot walk nor stand for more than a few minutes at a time, but tomorrow I’m going to strap on my “bionic” leg, fire up my walker, and take a few laps around my condo in support of the Women’s March. Thanks for giving me this opportunity to participate. I am…

I have mental disability and i cant read or write without help. I believe women has rights even with disabilities to be who we want to be and not to be judged. I still need help when I ask for it. I don’t want them to take away the help and rights women and disabled…
