I'm autistic. Here's what happened to us this week.

- Scottish police used Tasers on children in custody 43 times in one year. Ten of those childran had learning disabilities or autism. A government watchdog says stop. Police Scotland says it will "consider" the recommendation.

- A nonverbal autistic 5-year-old drowned in South Carolina. Warrants allege her parents removed her safety tracker before the trip... then misled searchers about where to look.

- Brazil is considering a bill that goes beyond hiring quotas. It would require employers to change how workplaces actually function for autistic workers. The catch... disclosure still carries real risk.

Plus a dozen more stories that hit where we live.

If your child can't explain what's wrong during a crisis... if keeping a job means hiding who you are... this isn't abstact policy.

This is the week we just lived.

What does this fight look like where you live?

Only 35% of people with significant disabilities are in the workforce, vs 75% of non-disabled adults. Adams, blind since age five and former CEO of the American Foundation for the Blind, cites Accenture: disability-inclusive companies saw 28% higher revenue.

I’M LIBERATED BY IT 💎

I’m only just beginning to understand how important the #Disability discussion underneath #AI actually is.

I have been abused for using AI. I have lost a dear friendship over it. I have been told, in various ways, what I should use instead.

Yet many of the alternatives people have suggested, from modern dictation to speech tools, already use AI themselves. AI is increasingly woven into ordinary technology, whether we call it AI or not.

And still, I choose AI Support, #AIS.

Not because I couldn’t survive without it. I could. I lived with the slower rhythm of my disability for decades before this technology appeared.

But with AIS, I feel liberated.

I can speak, I can write, and I can think things through. I can participate without the physical effort of typing, constantly determining how much of myself I get to express before exhaustion takes over.

That matters to me.

People are entirely free to criticise AI. They can refuse to use it themselves. They can raise every legitimate concern about what this technology is doing.

But I am the person with a disability in this life.

I get to choose the tools that help me live it.

I just urged Congress to pass the Latonya Reeves Freedom Act (S.4865 / H.R.9401), which would protect the right of disabled people to live in our communities and receive care at home instead of being placed in institutions.

I'm writing this from a nursing home. I'm 34, blind, autistic, and multiply disabled — and I don't need this level of care. I'm here because community-based services weren't available to me. That's exactly what this bill is meant to fix.

If you believe disabled people should be able to live where we choose, please add your voice. It only takes a minute:

So, the DOJ's recent memo re: the ADA's integration mandate isn't getting nearly enough attention (of course not... it has to do with disability rights).

The basic gist is that the mandate says that disabled people should be integrated into their communities unless it's completely unfeasible, and that, in turn, is used as the base justification for home care and community care to be mandated over nursing homes or other forms of institutionalization. The added side effect is that home/community care is cheaper (costs tax payers less) and results in overall better outcomes than the alternative.

The memo is an invitation for red states to stop paying for this kind of care, which will inevitably lead to law suits that will reach the SCOTUS. You can see where this is going, right? This is the first step in MAGA's/MAHA's desire to take people like me out of our homes. Remember - the OG Nazis did the same thing and tortured and killed 200,000+ disabled people.

This should absolutely be raising alarm bells, but because the disabled are always (intentionally) out of sight, out of mind (despite being the largest marginalized community), no one seems to give a shit.

"TV will rot your brain!" Remember when we said that?

Now we're saying it about AI, and we're missing the plot. If you're exhausted by the doomism around AI, I wrote a guide on how to actually fight back...

Ableism Enables All Forms of Inequity and Hampers All Liberation Efforts. Ableism has been used for generations to degrade, oppress, control and disappear disabled and nondisabled people alike.

In this engaging interview, Talila A. Lewis argues that ableism has deep implications for every other marginalized identity. In short, ableism, according to Lewis, is at the root of other powerful hegemonic sites — from race and class to colonialism and nationality. In this way, they uncover the ways in which ableism insidiously operates across space and time. As an abolitionist community lawyer, educator and organizer, Lewis has focused on abolishing the medical-carceral-industrial complex and highlighting the inextricable links between ableism, racism, classism, and all other forms of oppression and violence.

#LizCarr has stepped away from acting to advocate against the legalization of assisted suicide. Her latest #documentary, "Better Off Dead?", explores the implications of such laws, focusing on how they endanger disabled individuals.

Travelling to Canada, Carr investigates the effects of permissive assisted suicide laws. There not only the terminally ill can opt for a medically assisted death. This practice is even extended to those facing social deprivation, presenting a grave ethical dilemma.

In Britain, Carr meets with staunch opponents, including Baroness Jane Campbell, who shares a personal story of having a ‘Do Not Resuscitate’ order placed on her without consent.

👏 This Saturday, June 22, is the 25th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision in Olmstead v. L.C., an incredibly important moment in #DisabilityRights history. #Olmstead25

#Olmstead held that unjustified segregation of people with disabilities constitutes unlawful discrimination under the #ADA. Since this decision many disabled people have been able to live more independent lives in their communities. Bazelon Center w/ more: https://www.bazelon.org/the-olmstead-case/

I am thrilled to share with you all a beautiful sculpture made by my dear friend Rita. The piece is a bust of me, and I'm honored that she chose to celebrate my unique form despite my physical limitations due to Spinal Muscular Atrophy. It reminds me that my beauty and value are not defined by societal norms or physical ability, but by the wonder and complexity of the human form. As a protagonist in the film "Touch Me Not" by Adina Pintilie, I've become passionate about the importance of disability empowerment and inclusion, and this sculpture is a powerful representation of that. Thank you, Rita, for capturing the themes of intimacy and sexuality with such grace and beauty. I hope this work inspires others to embrace and celebrate diversity in all its forms. #sculpture #disabilityempowerment #bodypositivity #diversityandinclusion #cathedralofthebody
