Welcome to FWD/Forward: Feminists With Disabilities for a Way Forward. This site ran from 2009-2011, exploring a variety of feminist issues through a disability lens, in response to the lack of disability content in online feminist spaces, after which it closed due to lack of community support. ARCHIVES | FWD/FORWARD My friend Capriuni passed along to me this awesome YouTube video of “Your Brains” (original song by Jonathon Coulton). In and of itself, that’s not really note worthy – Capriuni is my source for many cool things in YouTube’s Deaf communities.ABOUT | FWD/FORWARD
About. FWD/Forward was a group blog written by a collective of disabled people/people with disabilities, some of whom were feminists and some of whom worked in solidarity with feminists. It was a place to discuss disability issues from an intersectional approach and people did not need to identify as feminist to be welcome at FWDalthough
ABLEIST WORD PROFILE Ableist Word Profile is an ongoing FWD/Forward series in which we explore ableism and the way it manifests in language usage. Here’s what this series is about: Examining word origins, the way in which ableism is unconsciously reinforced, the power that language has.UNCATEGORIZED
I’ve been so behind in my reading this month that I missed entirely The Blog Carnival of Mental Health Issue 1: Diagnosis. Welcome to the first Blog Carnival of Mental Health. I’m a day late, but I’m going to share with you an interesting if small collection of posts. BLIND | SEARCH RESULTS | FWD/FORWARD The Alliance for Equality of Blind Canadians collected success stories from blind, deaf-blind and partially sighted Canadians. These success stories were on any topic, whether on employment, community involvement or conquering your own personal goals. BODIES | FWD/FORWARD I gave a bit of a talk recently on what I viewed as the barriers to sexual health and education for people with disabilities, discovering that I have a lot of thoughts about the barriers not only to sexual health but to all levels of health care when one is disabled.

In and of itself, that’s not really note worthy – Capriuni is my source for many cool things in YouTube’s Deaf communities.ABOUT | FWD/FORWARD
