Quote from a disabled rebel
Before You Start Planning
-
Is there a wide array of disabled voices in the discussion space, reflecting the diversity of the movement?
-
Is there sufficient time in the planning agenda for specifically hearing those voices?
-

-
If you're planning a 'spicy' action, you need to be aware that disabled and neurodiverse people face larger barriers to taking part. Can an inaccessible action be adapted?
-
If not, are there other options available that are similar and as non-exclusive as possible? Do the other options still value a rebel's comittment to civil disobedience?
Now read the pages linked below, especially Ensuring your actions are accessible as they can be.
