"We will get free, together" @AbolitionDJ
The call “we keep us safe” reminds us that solutions should empower all people, including Disabled and Neurodivergent people, to exercise our self-determination with care and understanding. https://abolitionanddisabilityjustice.com

“Really, what it takes to flatten the curve is collective action and collective commitment. Interdependence is going to be what saves us, and #COVID19 is the extreme example of this.” @cripchick @disabilityjust1 https://www.kqed.org/news/11806414/coronavirus-how-these-disabled-activists-are-taking-matters-into-their-own-sanitized-hands%C2%A0
"A lot of activism work is trying to shift people to think about interdependence rather than independence. I believe if you view the needs of the most marginalized people impacted by an issue, then ultimately the entire community benefits."- @cripchick https://www.kqed.org/news/11784435/how-pges-power-shutoffs-sparked-an-east-bay-disability-rights-campaign
