So a little while back, @laura wrote an excellent introductory book on accessibility and inclusive design called Accessibility for Everyone for A Book Apart.
Then, A Book Apart folded and the authors managed to get their rights back.
And yesterday, after Laura put a huge amount of work adapting the book into a beautiful website she built using Kitten*, we republished the book under Small Technology Foundation Press.
You can read it for free at:

We’re tiny, independent, and not for profit. We reject all types of equity investment (VC, etc.) and won’t be sponsored by or otherwise allow our legitimacy to be used to whitewash Big Tech.

yourData is openDemocracy’s project to promote data transparency. We explore ways to show people how their data is used by data-driven websites. If a website shows me an article, or tries to sell me a product, or manages my access to government services, I want to know if and how they’re using my data to make that decision. That decision is called personalisation and it’s a filter that you typically have little knowledge of or control over. #personalisation #LauraKalbag https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/digitaliberties/designing-data-transparency-ideas-from-the-community/
