Much appreciation for Jamelia Morgan & her colleagues & students @NLawCRDJ & Northwestern’s Appellate Advocacy Center for hosting Janette Surrisi for a challenging moot in prep for arguments on the Americans with Disabilities Act’s application before CA7. #appellatetwitter

Very grateful to the @NLawCRDJ for inviting me to participate in this conversation. Institutionalization is incarceration, and reinstitutionalization is nothing more than warmed over policy that deceptively frames incarceration as a solution to social harm. We deserve better.

At least 10% of women suffer from endometriosis & endure severe pain every month. I’m one of them & just recovered from surgery. Patriarchy tells us: Get used to periods being painful & keep quiet. Most of us aren’t diagnosed for about a decade. Sharing to fight the silence.

This is not about intent or animus. This is about accuracy, agency, consent, humanity, and accountability. An afterthought and literary device to Oluo, *Black/Indigenous/Disability* is everythought and breath to us...

Grateful to Lawrence Solum for his endorsement of my new piece Selecting For Disability (forthcoming Harvard JOLT) as “Interesting and Recommended” 🙏🏻 This work is at the intersection of health law, genetics & family law. lsolum.typepad.com/legaltheory/20… SSRN: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf… Thread👇

I have some thoughts on this. 1. Accommodations is not binary. There are degrees of accommodations. 2. Some Bars are notorious for NOT granting accommodations. That makes me wonder if they are also granting insufficient accommodations, which might explain this. 🧵

The accommodation mandate is a crucial aspect of disability law. This perspective reflects a significant misunderstanding of both civil rights and the lived experience of people with disabilities. It is disheartening, depressing, and harmful.

On Thurs. 10/24 join ALC Board pres Jamelia Morgan & other great guests for this important webinar addressing the over-policing & incarceration of people with disabilities, and interventions to disrupt these patterns. buff.ly/3U1II7w

People love advocating for "diversity" until "diversity" starts to critique and make recommendations for change.
