my utopia has disability in it. my utopia includes free healthcare and no-questions welfare and state-funded carers. my utopia includes building requirements that centre disabled bodies — ramps and lifts and dimmer switches and braille signs. my utopia has disability in it. because without disability, it’s not much of a utopia at all

we have to give ourselves permission to imagine disabled futures. we’ve been told, either implicitly or explicitly that we shouldn’t exist, so it becomes hard to imagine a perfect world populated with people like us. but loving ourselves and our communities is about being able to imagine a future that has us in it. there is a perfect world where people are happily disabled. and that’s what I’m fighting for — the chance that we can slowly take steps towards that world. imagine disabled futures
