Abled gays celebrating marriage equality: well we sure do have nowhere to go from here when it comes to marriage rights. Gay rights!

Me, a disabled lesbian trying to get on ssi thinking about how I will not be able to marry my girlfriend if I do because I can't have more than $2000 to my name at a time and they count a spouse's income towards that: wow .. gay rights ...

Just wanna say if you fought for and support marriage equality for gay people its your responsibility to do the same for disabled people. Abled people can and should rb this

I should have been able to marry my fiance before he died in 2019. Often yall are too silent when I talk about the struggles I face being disabled compared to the rest of the content I share. Why do you all go silent? Your own uncomfortable feelings shouldn't pause your activism. These are our struggles, listen. Don't hesitate because you don't know, learn.

When you hear oppressed people say they want equality ask them if what they really mean is they want incorporation and representation. When oppressed people say they want justice ask them again if what they really mean is they want incorporation and representation. Please don’t be an ass about it either because the next question is really tough for a lot of us think about, let alone reconcile: Within a praxis centered on liberating oppressed peoples, what does incorporation and representation have to do with equality or justice, if anything?

A lot of these discussions will be happening today. Just a reminder that celebration doesn’t have to come at the cost of remaining critical.
