feministingforchange: It’s time to make the INvisible VISIBLE by proudly and publicly talking about our experiences as invisibly disabled people. Despite popular belief and community infrastructures, #InvisiblyDisabledPplExist. This ignorance and reduced community recognition and assistance can cause us lots of unnecessary difficulty, pain, and even death. This means it’s time to start a movement to end the ignorance about what it “means” to be disabled. Please use the hashtag #InvisiblyDisabledPplExist to not only make signs over disabled seating and other areas, as mentioned in tweet 4 above. We must also talk about our many many stories of being invisibly disabled in a world where the public doesn’t recognize our existence (like mine). Please Tweet & Boost!!! I keep meaning to bring this back but I’m always too poor and am a terrible anti-social hermit. I’ve gotta get bigger post-its and better markers, which are surprisingly expensive. I also wanna contact my local news agencies about it as a movement I’d like to start (with their help), but I don’t wanna give away my real identity. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can make a bigger splash with this movement given these limitations???That said, I’d also very much love it if others would help me by making a handful of these post-its and spreading them around too (especially on public transit). p.s., here’s a list of just SOME invisible disabilities!!!ETA: Also, if you DO spread these post-its around, pls also take pictures of it and share those photos and perhaps also this link on any and all of your social media (e.g., facebook, instagram, twitter, tumblr, etc! using the hashtag!! PLS!!!) -- source link
