The more privileged you are, the more risks you should be taking in the name of freedom, justice & liberation for all.

If that ain’t the pot calling the kettle black. You're saying, are we 12 years old as if you just didn’t ask me if I wanted 'to have a disability war?'

That's a lie.

I never said Amanda Seales got her diagnosis from TV characters. I asked why she's learning about autism from TV characters, which she says verbatim in this clip. She knows autists are excluded from writers rooms, and characters are not written by autistic people.

If abled Black women know they're stereotyped as angry and mad. Why can't yall see when you add disability to that? You're seen as that, and then some fam?

We are dismissed and not listened to if we are abrasive or don't use compassionate language when talking about disability.

Several people are trying to have a gotcha moment with me regarding my autism posts on Amanda Seales. This would be a great time to remind people:

How do my tweets calling Amanda Seales ableist for describing being autistic as 'alien and very odd.' Including using ableist language like a sociopath translate into a defense in your eyes?

Let's talk about your misrepresentations, shall we?

1. She said she was 42 years old, not that she was diagnosed 42 days ago. (6:31 mark)

2. She said she 'LEARNED,' not heard. Her quote verbatim, 'I started learning more from people like Holly Robinson Peete. (7:15 mark)

It's ironic.

Over two weeks ago, I penned a thread about Amanda Seales and responded to her claim that Black media had excluded her. It was a list of how Black disabled women are actually the ones ignored by Black media. I tagged her in these posts on IG.
