The fact that white disabled folk will be so quick to dismiss the disabilities of the BIPoC person that they& #39;re projecting on to. That& #39;s supremacy.
"But I am disabled"
As Am I. What of it? https://twitter.com/Imani_Barbarin/status/1266458382598320140">https://twitter.com/Imani_Bar...

Even if the other person isn& #39;t disabled, your disability Is Not A Sheild. You still benefit from being white in a society built to benefit you. Disabilities aren& #39;t some drape to protected you from learned biases & carried bigotry.
It& #39;s so weird how we have to just keep repeating the same things
Over, and
Over, and
Over again.
We Are Still disincluded, erased, & attacked by the same folk who say that they have included us. Mostly only accepting us for as long as we stick to what we have in common.

I& #39;m still learning about my Disabled history, but I am aware of how even in Disabled spaces BIPoC folk had to c.a.r.v.e. out advocacy for themselves. Even in that Black disabled folk have to deal with anti-blackness, and the things that come with it.
And of course, this continues to reflect for the different marginalized groups within our umbrella. Any form of bigotry that an abled person can have, so do disabled folk. Including ableism & disableism as well.
