Here's to the leaders who are blind or vision impaired who have led in all the ways that you have this year! Your impact is noticed and it makes a difference in creating disability-inclusive communities through direct lived-experience leadership.
We know there are more out there though! Tag blind leaders you want to acknowledge in the comments. We'd love to celebrate with them.

Today, on the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we’re sharing our latest blog post: Common misconceptions about disability.
Misunderstandings about disability continue to shape how products, services and workplaces are designed. Ideas such as disability being always visible, always permanent, or only relevant to a small group of people can lead to barriers that are both unnecessary and avoidable.

As technologists, we have a unique and wonderful opportunity to make the world more inclusive, and so today, on #IDPWD, please think about how you can make your work more inclusive, more accessible, more open.
By helping one group of people, we make experiences better for everyone -- think about how captions have made your life easier, even if your hearing is perfect.
Our #Accessibility Handbook is a great place to start: https://ter.li/rff2zc

I’m in my employer’s flagship event in honour of International Day of People with Disabilities.
Our keynote speaker opened her speech with…
You’re never going to guess. I mean, go on, try. But you’re never going to guess.
Except you are.

Happy #IDPWD colleagues, comrades and community!
Natalie Wade and I got you a present. Well, it is probably a practical present for the Attorney-General, but you might like to open it for him.
The article is free until 31 December 2023 to celebrate IDPWD (thanks Leadership from SAGE Journals and Deb Candy).

We just celebrated our 10th Anniversary 🎉 ⭐ !! My sister, @TeresaHeartchild, has lived with me and my husband, @billiamjames since Dec 1, 2013. It's a victory in so many ways. Teresa was wrongly labelled 'incapable' in 2013 and put in a nursing home. Most people don't get out alive—and they don't become #HumanRights champions as Teresa has done. 🙌
