Superb article❗️

Happy 11 year anniversary to my first academic article publication “Coming to Claim Crip: Disidentification with/in Disability Studies.” I wrote this as a grad student grappling with my relationship to disability studies & disability identity (1/3)

UNC students right now starting an encampment outside of the university administration building in solidarity with Columbia students and Palestine 🇵🇸

Protesting students are doing exactly what education is designed to help them do: attempt to change the world.

For learning the lesson too well, they get state violence.

Not surprised at all. But what astonishes me - a NC public school graduate, recipient of 2 UNC system degrees, and faculty at a UNC system university - is just how badly some want to ruin our state's most important resources: our public schools and universities

“American Indians and Black Americans die at significantly higher rates from preventable and treatable causes than members of other racial and ethnic groups.”

Yet, efforts are ongoing attempting **to maintain and exacerbate these existing inequities**.

Friendly reminder: Everyone’s experience with disability is different. Don’t make assumptions about how someone feels!

A few weeks ago, I met this woman whose mother had a tracheostomy tube for decades like me. At first I got excited since I rarely meet others with trach tubes.

A much needed session on inclusive communication in the healthcare setting led by the wonderful Drs. Diana Cejas, MD, MPH and Nicole Rosendale

Thank you for the engaging and empowering session! Hope to see the #AAN continue on this work to improve equitable care in neurology 🧠

I really enjoyed coming on! Also, Liz Weintraub, who I mentioned during the episode, is on Twitter/X and you can follow her @TuesdayWithLiz. Her YouTube show, which I used to do editing and technical stuff for, is still running.

Our newest paper in JAMA showing match rates for future #DocsWithDisabilities . There's more work to be done in the #UME to #GME pathway for #Equity in #MedEd .
