#DisabilityEmpowerment

2024-12-08

Later today, I'm helping a 24 yr old disabled young adult with down syndrome (with social anxiety) to do her first grocery shopping trip without her parents using the accessible HandyDart bus system. Then, going to finish helping her setup her new independent living suite. This will all help her build up more confidence with living by herself for the first time. She is in PT college, pursuing medical transcription career & doing pretty well with her studies 👍

I am thrilled to share with you all a beautiful sculpture made by my dear friend Rita. The piece is a bust of me, and I'm honored that she chose to celebrate my unique form despite my physical limitations due to Spinal Muscular Atrophy. It reminds me that my beauty and value are not defined by societal norms or physical ability, but by the wonder and complexity of the human form. As a protagonist in the film "Touch Me Not" by Adina Pintilie, I've become passionate about the importance of disability empowerment and inclusion, and this sculpture is a powerful representation of that. Thank you, Rita, for capturing the themes of intimacy and sexuality with such grace and beauty. I hope this work inspires others to embrace and celebrate diversity in all its forms. #sculpture #disabilityempowerment #bodypositivity #diversityandinclusion #cathedralofthebody

#SexOnWheels.
Some #creators delve into #SexWork & everyday lives of people who perform, others try & shine some light on the #DisabledCommunity but both of these in the same spot is incredibly rare. To make this particular project even more unique, the two members of the #CreativeTeam are also #disabled & they aren’t holding back with this new #comic #book that wants to make sure everyone knows, “ #Crips fuck too.”
