My math professor just pulled me aside after class, said she just recieved the accomodation email (i just set up accomodations today at my disability meeting) and straight up said she wasnt going to accommodate me. Wow.
I have dyscalculia, a learning disability that affects math and numbers (simply put), among other disabilities that affect academic performance.
Of all classes math is THE NUMBER ONE class I need accomodations in. And she just straight up denied me my legal right to em.

Idk who needs to hear this this #Pride but disability rights is an #LGBT issue and LGBT rights is a disability issue.
They overlap. ALOT. But yet I rarely see them brought up at the same time or the connections mentioned.
So as an LGBT disabled guy let me clue yall in

Sorry in addvance if this is all over the place. Not good at structuring my points. But i just wanted to bring members from both my communities together to see the similarities. Abled queers and cishet disabled ppl may not have been aware of eachothers issues.
