Tweet from Allison Hitt

“Accessibility is not simply about accommodations. It’s about disability justice. It’s about normalizing the multiple ways that folks exist in & interface with the world. It’s so much more than a “nice” practice or legal requirement. It’s an ethical responsibility for us all.“
