Flying while disabled is one of the worst things. The endless amount of discrimination and ableism I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Thanks americanair

If you can't see what I see in this content you should buy my book. This is an example of why representation of Black people in marketing, branding, PR, or creative spaces are crucial. Hint it's the N-word. Do better Films to Films Was the E before the N was too much?

This is exactly what solidarity looks like. This is very reminiscent of college students mobilizing during the Civil Rights Movement. ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽

DEI programs are under attack to maintain white supremacy. Just take a minute to think about how DEI programs are designed for oppressed groups to feel just like white people and white people are like oh no you can't feel my comfort, power and privilege. Wild!

Update. Two days and nothing. I filed complaints with the Dept of Transportation and the SW. Nothing from Southwest Airlines about my disability discrimination. Further adding to how they do not care about folks. But I'm not surprised because White Supremacy is All Around.
