Not to make light of a serious #equity issue, but any other unmarried South Asian / AAPIs have success with using this fact to get their relatives off their back? 😬 @AsianDisability @aadinitiative @ChronicBrown #DisabilityPrideMonth #DisabilityTwitter #BrownGirlProblems
This disability pride month, I want to remind everyone again that disabled people who depend on disability benefits can't marry or they could lose their benefits. The benefits that often keep them alive.
There isn't marriage equality for disabled people.

I feel mixed emotions with the formal end to #shielding today. I want nothing more than to go out again after shielding for over a year. It feels very unnerving with the risk of catching Covid to start mixing again. I’m doing everything by my own timeline and when feels safe.
The majority of clinically extremely vulnerable people plan to shield until their second vaccine. This is how they feel about the guidelines changing. huffp.st/pymXHKn

I ensured #accessibility was paramount for our virtual #AsianWomanFestival!
Not just because 1 in 6 South Asian's in the UK live with an impairment or a condition, but it means everyone can join in a way that is comfortable and preferencial them. #Inclusion
Loving the accessibility and user friendly resources @AsianWomanFest virtual festival today. Tune via the website live until 5pm today, with @DrRadhaModgil @SunnyandShay @ShaniDhanda @A_W_M_B @nktgill and some hidden gems.
