Wrote this yesterday.
The intro:
“People tell disabled people to get a job. But never
how to stay in one.
How or when to explain your disabilities without losing the ability to work.
For example, this is what happened when I worked In DC for an international agency.”

I assume that if you don't want to hear my thoughts about
#COVID19,
#LongCOVID,
#disability, #DisabledBlackTalk,
#ChronicPain,
#Race,
#Racism
#Advocacy,
#Activism,
#BlackCulture or #BlackMastodon
- why would you follow me? 😊
Because I want to hear yours and I *will* be seeking them in those hashtags and on the TL.
Later for now.
The extra labor one has to do as a Black person IS the problem.
Having to move to an instance where people understand by default IS the issue.
White people don’t have to find an instance where it’s okay to talk about their daily lives of being white.
Just realized I can’t find my own unlisted posts! So #DisabledBlackTalk will have to do until I find a solution…
