A few hours ago, Twitter laid off its entire Accessibility Experience team. This is sad not only because so many lost their jobs, but because so many more around the world may lose their voice.

In every #GAAD talk I’ve done I quote @MattMay: “In any org some people need to know *a lot* about accessibility but *everyone* needs to know a little.” What are your favorite take-aways from #a11y talks?

This is what leadership in dev looks like. Whenever possible, we should follow Stephanie's example.

You wouldn't plant a seed and then dig it up every few minutes to see if it has grown. So why do you keep questioning yourself, your hard work and your decisions? Have patience, stop overthinking and keep watering your seeds.

I'm going to keep reminding people that "Rutgers" gets mistaken for rockers, ruckers, ruckus, workers, rappers, wrappers, and Rockies (and so much more) until people stop asking if they can just get away with automated captions. #a11y

i think the most painful thing i’ve ever been told is that because i’m a woman i shouldn’t go out into public speaking. that my voice isn’t needed/is haram(?). being a poc woman w a physical disability is all the more reason for me to speak up.. it’s always men saying this too

I’m disabled. I don’t have special needs. I have human needs. Human needs are not special needs.

Instead of demonizing those disabled people who bring lawsuits challenging inaccessibility, how about faulting those who defiantly refuse to provide access to disabled people?

I am not your model minority. Here's a picture of my mother and grandma holding me, their brown baby. They love me and I love them. These are the faces I see when a coward in Atlanta killed Asian women. These are the faces I see when a coward attacked an elderly Asian women SF.

I think one of the most important things for a lot of people when looking for a job is knowing that they will fit in, that there is a culture there that will accept them. This is particularly important for disabled people, are already at an employment disadvantage. #AXSChat A2
