Happy MLK Jr Day!

Happy MLK Jr Day! Some shared intentions from one of my Disability Justice role models, Vilissa K. Thompson, LMSW

"Dr. King’s speech lives in me as I make my way to fight for equal opportunities and justice for people with disabilities in America and abroad. Being a triple minority – African American, female, and disabled – I know that there are obstacles in my path because of the prejudices that some hold about the groups I’m a member of. Being aware of those prejudices doesn’t make me anger; it makes me proactive and passionate about spearheading change."
