The ongoing fight for disability economic justice, over thirty years after the ADA
tcf.org
Thirty-one years ago, the fabric of America’s legal and policy landscape changed dramatically for people with disabilities in the United States when the Americans with Disabilities Act, or ADA, was signed into law by President George H. W. Bush, on July 26, 1990. But, as far we’ve come these past thirty-plus years, we still have incredibly far to go. Even prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, disabled people in the United States—who make up one in four Americans—were roughly twice as likely to live in poverty and two to three times more likely to be unemployed. Now, as federal policymakers work to “build back better,” the United States has the opportunity to take another set of historic steps towards achieving the ADA’s promise of equal opportunity, community integration, and participation in American life for people with disabilities—a promise that remains as-yet unfulfilled.

Ableist Language and the Politics of Peer Review in Philosophy
biopoliticalphilosophy.com
The CPA, APA, CSWIP, and other philosophy associations, as well as Feminist Philosophy Quarterly, Hypatia, and most other philosophy journals, do not use the ableist metaphor blind review in their CFPs due to my critiques of ableist language in posts at various philosophy blogs, in articles (here, for example), on Facebook, and elsewhere over the past several years. Nor do most philosophy conference CFPS include the use of this ableist metaphor. The currently preferred term in these and other philosophy venues is anonymous review (or some variation thereof). I elaborate my critique of the ableist term blind review and of ableist language more generally in chapter 1 of Foucault and Feminist Philosophy of Disability.

Self-Diagnosing: A Response to Inaccessible Healthcare
rootedinrights.org
Before I got a medical diagnosis for anxiety and depression, I self-diagnosed. There were many things about my mental health that I couldn’t explain. For instance, why would I, as a child, always worry rather than being carefree like other kids? Things that shouldn’t necessarily affect a child’s thought process always found ways to affect me, keeping me up at night and distancing me from others. When I was a teenager, and certain symptoms continued to affect my life to the point of making it hard to function, I started doing my own research, which is when I came across the words “anxiety” and “depression.” I wasn’t in a place where I could get an official diagnosis but learning how people navigated their lives with depression and anxiety helped me in my day-to-day life, even if I wasn’t sure my mental health aligned with these illnesses. All I knew was that I felt the way the symptoms were described and looking up ways to cope with anxiety and depression helped me.
