Loved tonight’s Deafies in Drag performance. A special treat to see a former student on stage.
Check out this very good Doggo. #BrickFestLive
Scholars with a political commitment to the principles of Crip Linguistics: do not do this. This kind of critique is often used to attack black, brown, deaf, disabled marginalized scholars. P.S. AI edited work is excruciating to read.

I'd love to speak to college organizers who have set up D/deaf, disabled and/or neurodivergent contingents at campus encampments for a piece. My email is in my bio and my DM’s are open. I’m curious about how disabled students are showing up for these protests.
I’d love to host a discussion for signers- either in IS or ASL. DM me if interested and I’ll set up a discussion group. Topic: academic ableism:/ Margaret price’s Crip Spacetime.

I’m planning to host at least one Zoom book discussion of @PriceMargaret’s Crip Spacetime for disabled academics this summer. If there is demand, I can host up to three. I encourage others who have capacity to host too! Save the Date: Tuesday, July 9, 12-1:30PM Central Time!
Is International Sign (IS) purer than national sign languages? There's a perspective suggesting that because IS stands as a more 'pure' form of signing as it avoids mouthings and fingerspellings from spoken languages. 🧵
I have a date with this very handsome gentleman this afternoon. He’s promised a long walk through his favorite park and an evening with his special interests: balls and cats. Going to do my soul so much good to hang with a dog again.

"Disability Works" will be published three months from today! It is currently available for pre-order for Amazon. Pre-orders play a key role in a book's success, so I hope you'll consider ordering a copy and having your institution do the same. Thank you! shorturl.at/ajZ08
SLT peeps this seems like a good opportunity for those working on fluency & to approach our practices through a critical disability lens. Seems like Josua St. Pierre (love their work) and colleagues are leading this.

Any schools in the United States run by people with autism/majority of teachers & staff are on the spectrum? My son needs to grow and learn in an environment where he isn't othered and pathologized. Any and all info pls!
Because a number of scholars & equity minded educators understand the difference between a socially constructed medicalised term invented for SLTs vs exposing wider power structures that are the very reason for such ideological construction.

Early signed language exposure does not negatively impact spoken language processing in deaf CI users but may instead potentially offset negative effects of language deprivation without any signed language exposure experience prior to implantation. direct.mit.edu/nol/article/do…

Because you had to know that violence would be weaponised against students/faculty of color.
I’ve been released & am at the hospital to be checked out for injuries. A cop grabbed my dress & ripped it half off my body, injuring my arm. Another put his hands around my throat from behind to get me on the ground.
@DeafKilljoy For sure. And I’m going somewhere else with really strong branding. It. Is. Everywhere.
I don’t mind the royal blue, red and white colors of my regalia but the very large logo kind of ruins the gravitas. I feel like such a wonk in it.
Graduate school tip: Choose universities based on the cutest doctoral regalia because you will be wearing it at every graduation after your own.

@ErinMoriartyH @DeafKilljoy I would love to talk to you (and @DeafKilljoy ) about this sometime. There's a paper there! (In the style of Stefon from SNL) It's got everything: linguistics, history, anthropology!
@DeafKilljoy I saw them when they came to Fremont and I was laughing from start to finish! They are the best.
7 years ago I had my first presentation, a bimodal bilingual presentation alongside @jmhenner Not enough words to entail what Jon means to me. Reflecting ❤️

Gallaudet students know a thing or two about historic student-led protests #DeafPresidentNow
Something I’m not hearing a ton about is that Gallaudet Students, from the historic college for the deaf, are also participating in solidarity encampments in the DMV area.
I'd love to speak to college organizers who have set up D/deaf, disabled and/or neurodivergent contingents at campus encampments for a piece. My email is in my bio and my DM’s are open. I’m curious about how disabled students are showing up for these protests.
This is not a "poor disabled student got hurt" post, this is to note that many disabled students understand this war/genocide as a disability justice struggle and are truly putting their bodies, which are often more susceptible to harm due to physical impairments, on the line.

Due to demand, I have decided to host three Zoom discussions of Crip Spacetime. Sessions are intended for disabled people and targeted towards academic staff and faculty. I encourage others to host and share about their own discussions too! All info in this thread! #CripSpacetime
I’m planning to host at least one Zoom book discussion of @PriceMargaret’s Crip Spacetime for disabled academics this summer. If there is demand, I can host up to three. I encourage others who have capacity to host too! Save the Date: Tuesday, July 9, 12-1:30PM Central Time!
Some Deaf people really gotta give other Deaf people some grace if they aren’t fluent in ASL. Not everyone had the language access like some of us were privileged enough to have.
When this beautiful flier was created, I was planning to give a public lecture. But the season has shifted. If you’re in Berkeley tomorrow afternoon, I’ll be leading a *public workshop* on bad feelings & crip activism for a FREE PALESTINE. tinyurl.com/3h7fptpr
What is one of the most misunderstood and misused concepts in sign language technology development and research? I’ll start: co-design/co-creation.
