I think it's bs that so much crip community, culture, etc. is USA-centric and that the only Canadian crips who "make it" (in terms of popularity/platforms, networks of friends, paid opportunities) in this scene are the ones who American figurehead crips invite in.
disability exists across the globe, it's time to start acting, creating, engaging, naming, working accordingly.
oh fuck I didn't realize it's the 30th year of the ADA today (I'm Canadian so that legislation doesn't apply to me) lmao not a subtweet to anyone but hey, if the shoe fits ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
anyway all that to say, American-centrism is yet another thing the disabled community is *not* free of
