Pst, #AcademicTwitter another resource to consider for your toolbox. The more accessible we make our classes, presentations, papers, science, etc., the more of an impact we have. Accessibility increases access for everyone. #DisabledInSTEM #DisInHigherEd #ADANetworkChat

It is so hard to be disabled in the academy when the advice given to you is 1. Hide it. 2. Work harder than your peers so when people notice it's forgiveable. 3. Be disabled in the "right" way (aka continue to produce at rates that are impossible to maintain) #AcademicChatter

Any one know of resources for writing #AltText specifically for complex images, the figures included in academic manuscripts, such as flowcharts and figures with a number of arrows? #BlindInSTEM #DisInHigherEd #DisabledInSTEM #DigitalAccessibility #A11y #DisabilityTwitter

Happy #DisabilityPrideMonth to all my fellow disabled academics out there. If you're a non-disabled person here are some tips for engaging in the celebration of disabled persistence, resistance, and existence in the face of unrelenting ableism.
