Dear abled people:

Every time you are asked to provide accessibility and resent "more work", use that feeling to reflect on how much more work it is for people WHO ARE DISABLED to do the work an ableist society requires for just about every interaction in our day (bureaucracy re disability/poverty, inaccessible communication/infrastructure/culture/events/school/work/hospitals/emergency response, etc). and join us in working for systemic change that will make it easier for all of us.

Note: If I were to write the Demandifesto now, it would be different given the experiences I've had in the last 4 years.

We shouldn't be working for a "kinder and gentler" disability cop station. We should be dismantling the separate but unequal system that our society has built to continue to pretend disabled people are not part of the public, and to filter our taxes, tuition, fees, labor towards enriching capitalist ableist priorities.
