Hey folks! The @WAARC_Sheffield Ableism and Academia Reading Group is back on this week! Why not reach out if you fancy coming along virtually from 3:00-4:30pm UK time on Friday 4th October? This month we're discussing Kwon's 'Resistance from the margin' (2024), and I can't wait!

There is no disability justice without a #FreePalestine.
ALT A white graphic with a border of watermelons at the top and bottom. A statement reads: "Disability Divest. There is no disability justice without a free Palestine.
Disability Divest is a group of disabled people demanding that the disability establishment end its financial relationships and partnerships with weapons manufacturers and other companies funding genocide.
Come back at the beginning of July, “Disability Pride Month," to learn how the disability establishment is complicit and our demands for change. #DisabilityDivest." It includes the Disability Divest logo, a wheelchair user icon, but the wheel of the wheelchair is the inside slice of a watermelon. At the center of the watermelon is the rainbow neurodivergence infinity sign.
