feminists really need to be better about access tbh

  1. At your supposedly radical events is there wheelchair access? that includes lifts and ample floor space as well as ramps. Is there a sensory room? Are there interpreters? Have you ensured there are no flashing lights? Is there a qualified first aider?
  2. If you’re printing leaflets is the text readable? Is it in a dyslexic-friendly font? Is there any braille option?
  3. On your websites do you provide image descriptions? Do your videos have subtitles? And a transcript?
  4. Do you summarise your theory and essays? Or just expect everyone to read your 5k jargon-filled discussion?

and this isn’t an exhaustive list or even going into attitudinal barriers like please stop and think about your disabled sisters and how you are actively excluding us from your movements and what you can do to change that
