The two major "holidays" for disabled people in the US are July 26 - the anniversary of the signing into law of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) in October. The former at least has real ties to disability activism and history although it is also focused on cheerleading the legislative floor that institutions still haven't met 33 years later.

The latter is aimed at (abled) employers and is even more about cheering the status quo.

"Accommodations" is a term that says inaccessibility is the desired default - anything that differs from that is noblesse oblige from abled people - rather than our actual right as co-equal members of this society.

Because this is nominally for disabled people - this is one of the few University of California events with captions and (presumably ASL) interpretation, and an online option.

Still no masking during pandemic. @academicchatter @disability
