🙏 Goodbye, Alabama. Hello, Georgia.
We have just crossed the state border from Alabama to Georgia—entering our fifth state on this journey for peace!

Alabama, thank you for the incredible warmth, the generous support, and the open hearts we encountered at every stop. From Cuba to Montgomery to Opelika and everywhere else we have been in Alabama, you welcomed us like family. Your kindness carried us through so many miles. We are deeply grateful.

Georgia, we are honored to walk your roads and meet your people. May we share peace, compassion, unity, and healing together. 💛

The journey continues—with gratitude for where we’ve been, and respect for where we go.

May you and all beings be happy and at peace. 🙏

I love Christmas time! I’m reliving my childhood and watching Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. There are so many disability themes in it.

Your differences make you unique, being a misfit, socially excluded, encouraged to hide your differences to get a job, bullying, and shaming. 🎄🤶🏿 🎁

Notice how only white people with disabilities are highlighted here. The experiences of disabled Black people and people of color with the ADA are entirely ignored.

AN NPR survey finds that people with disability still find hotels unaccommodating, even 35 years after passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
