via Facebook... From Lydia Brown: "Justice is for all, not "just us." Disability justice that does not critique the prison-industrial complex, mass incarceration, rampant anti-Black racism, white supremacy, U.S. genocide of Indigenous peoples, or the occupation of Palestine is not justice. Photo: Image from Sins Invalid. It's a painting/drawing by Micah Bazant depicting two people -- one Black and one Palestinian -- holding hands. The Black person is wearing an orange prison uniform and using a wheelchair with prison bars behind them. The Palestinian person is wearing all white clothing and a hijab, and has one arm and one leg bandaged and amputated, and is sitting on the ground in front of a building with rockets/missiles being fired down upon it, causing flames. The text says, "Disability Justice means resisting together from solitary cells to open-air prisons. To Exist is to Resist.""
