The more specific you are about the kinds of accessibility you offer, the more disabled folks will be able to know whether it works for their access needs. This encourages strike participation while minimizing any inadvertent harms. And thanks for providing access!

So if your table is a 100% mask-on area, say that.
If your table is welcoming to folks who have disability-related reasons they can't wear a mask, but is otherwise trying to ventilate, maintain distance, say that.
If your area is to be as close to a picket as possible while being far enough away to reduce some of the sensory overload possibilities, say that.
If you have ASL interpretation or CART captions, say that.

Request for those considerate & kind enough to be filling in some of the missing accessibility at #strike events:
Please let folks know what kinds of accessibility you offer!
Due to conflicting access needs it can sometimes be hard to provide full accessibility to everyone at one place & time.

To UC UAW members, the bargaining caucus Zoom is stuffed to the gills right now. You might need to try again and see if you get lucky.

Faculty showed up to support the strike. When the mic was opened up, faculty were asked to speak. This speech by Davis Faculty Association's Jesse Drew was off-the-cuff.

It was difficult to upload the video here given all that's going on with the Mastodon upgrade right now, but if you'd like to enjoy some end-of-picket accordion, click accordingly : https://twitter.com/AccessUc/status/1592689143099707393
“.@alyankovic should appreciate this moment at the end of the UAW picketing day at UC Davis as we're serenaded by accordion. "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" played on accordion, as viewed through picket signs on Access Needs. #FairUCNow #UCAccessNow https://t.co/ALJukpN9by”
