'It is dehumanizing when your body is suddenly thrust into an uninvited space of scrutiny simply because of basic needs that are not met,' Regan Linton writes

Few housing options exist for residents being asked to vacate Greeley apartments for people with disabilities

And the general populace does not get detailed – or any – education about this. Think about it: do you know the history of the disability rights movement? Were you ever required to take a general ed class on disability? Did your school offer American Sign Language along with Spanish and French? The education most people get about disability is largely nonexistent, even in “progressive” spaces like the arts.

Yes, we should all be aware of each other, but generalities aren’t the entirety of the human experience. Making change means communicating and connecting about each other’s situation so that we aren’t just defaulting to a code or a law. Rather we can seek to understand the human element of why things like accessibility or civil rights are important.

Does that mean I will boycott CPRD until they are accessible? No. Does it mean I’ll provide feedback, build a relationship with them, and help them in their efforts to make things more accessible? Yes … at the same time as I work to understand the challenges they face maintaining their presence in ever-gentrifying environs.
