HOW TO BE A BETTER ALLY TO THE DISABLED COMMUNITY: A THREAD.

Image descriptions in alt text.

LISTEN TO US. DON'T INVALIDATE OUR LIVED EXPERIENCES!

INSTEAD OF TAKING UP OUR SPACE, AMPLIFY OUR VOICES!

ALWAYS ASK INSTEAD OF ASSUMING THINGS ABOUT US!

DON'T GENERALIZE DISABILITIES.

ABLEISM IS REAL. LEARN ABOUT IT. ACKNOWLEDGE IT. CALL YOUR ABLEIST FRIENDS OUT!

EDUCATE YOURSELVES. BE OPEN TO LEARNING AND UNLEARNING.
