Ivette Mir<p>Today is the start of Disability Pride Month, an annual observance that celebrates the history, achievements, and experiences of people with disabilities. This month coincides with the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which was signed into law in July 1990.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/disabledcommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>disabledcommunity</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ADA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ADA</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/disabled" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>disabled</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DisabilityPrideMonth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DisabilityPrideMonth</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fypviral%E3%82%B7" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fypviralシ</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/deaf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>deaf</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>blind</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/reshare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>reshare</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/July2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>July2025</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MobilityImpaired" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MobilityImpaired</span></a></p>
Ivette Mir<p>There was essentially zero media coverage of the recent protest in Washington DC to stop Medicaid cuts! Capitol police dragged protesters out, many who are disabled.

Ms. Que Banh<p>One of the biggest issues with fellow <a href="https://beige.party/tags/autistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>autistic</span></a> folks is not wanting to identify as <a href="https://beige.party/tags/disabled" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>disabled</span></a>. I can understand &amp; respect that personal choice. I have both physical &amp; invisible <a href="https://beige.party/tags/disabilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>disabilities</span></a> so don't really have that personal choice. What I've learned from a lifetime of living as an openly disabled person is some folks not wanting to identify as disabled but wanting to access disability support systems. It doesn't work like that. If you don't identify as disabled - you won't get any disabilities coverage, no disability benefits &amp; won't qualify for any disability accommodations in any workplaces.</p><p>What exactly are some fellow autistics scared of, with identifying as a disabled person? Because some of the reasons I've read online sound ableist &amp; not accepting of folks with disabilities. Some of the reasons I hear are very hurtful towards <a href="https://beige.party/tags/DisabledCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DisabledCommunity</span></a>. Is it just ego &amp; self protection or is it something else? I don't get it as I don't have the privilege to choose to opt out of disability identity - it's part of who I am, whether I like it or not.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ActuallyAutistic</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/AuDHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AuDHD</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/PeopleWithDisabilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PeopleWithDisabilities</span></a></p>
Ms. Que Banh<p>The <a href="https://beige.party/tags/diversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>diversity</span></a> of <a href="https://beige.party/tags/disabilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>disabilities</span></a> means <a href="https://beige.party/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>accessibility</span></a> needs can be both wide-ranging within the community and specific to an individual. But in general, “there are very, very few venues where the stage itself is accessible. There’s a slightly larger number, but still plenty of places <a href="https://beige.party/tags/inaccessible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>inaccessible</span></a> for an audience member to watch the show,” says Dan Hurwitz, co-founder of the Seattle-based comedian collective <a href="https://beige.party/tags/TheDisabledList" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheDisabledList</span></a> and a stand-up missing digits from his hands and feet.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/Comedians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Comedians</span></a> say their medium inherently requires flexibility and improvisation, but what’s being asked of them is <a href="https://beige.party/tags/inequitable" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>inequitable</span></a>, may be illegal under <a href="https://beige.party/tags/TitleIII" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TitleIII</span></a> of the <a href="https://beige.party/tags/AmericansWithDisabilitiesAct" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AmericansWithDisabilitiesAct</span></a>, and can have long-lasting impacts on their careers. “A comedy stage is the entry point to these other opportunities that will help to develop your art,” notes Nina G., author of “Stutterer Interrupted” and a member of the Bay Area troupe <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ComediansWithDisabilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ComediansWithDisabilities</span></a> Act. “If you’re not able to develop your art, how are you going to get those acting gigs? How are you going to write that sitcom? How are you going to get a special?”</p><p>According to Snipe, acts can face “the fire and the gauntlet” of navigating inaccessible public transit or expensive and unreliable rideshares even before they arrive. Once at the venue, ASL interpreters, audio description, ramps or accessible bathrooms are few and far between, whether in L.A., New York, or outside these coastal entertainment bubbles.</p><p><a href="https://variety.com/2024/film/features/steve-way-maysoon-zayid-disabled-comedians-inaccessibility-1236068022/amp/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">variety.com/2024/film/features</span><span class="invisible">/steve-way-maysoon-zayid-disabled-comedians-inaccessibility-1236068022/amp/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/PeopleWithDisabilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PeopleWithDisabilities</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/AccessibilityForInclusiveness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AccessibilityForInclusiveness</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/DisabledCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DisabledCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/DisabledEntertainers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DisabledEntertainers</span></a></p>
