Accessibility is suddenly everywhere, why am I so sad?

Some of us are now looking at the speed and frankly larger amounts of effort and money being put in that we were told was impossible, unfair, at a small scale.

Many of us are grieving all over again for what we missed out on due to being denied reasonable requests. For many it was advanced degrees, for others it was a career. We are talking about the exact same requests and, for many in the community, from the exact institutions that denied them in the first place.

Please read, but don’t add more pressure on those sharing, it’s a really hard time for us. Read, and remember and remember to keep normalising these accommodations. Once this is over they may be locked off again to those who need these all the time.
