"It was a real honor to experience her time on Earth. It was a real honor just to watch her. I counted my lucky stars that she was my friend. She was my comrade. She was a chosen older sister in some ways." --Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha on #AliceWong. Read more at discojourno.com
This was great. Alice's life is fascinating. Her sense of humor had me cracking up.

As #AliceWong says:
#CripTheVote
A small memorial setup on a wooden table with a framed portrait, a vase of red, yellow, and orange roses, soft string lights and candles, and cards and messages spread out in remembrance.
Thank you to everyone who joined us yesterday, in person and online, to honour Alice Wong.

I am so sad I waited till now to read Year of the Tiger by Alice Wong.
But today, I am so happy to have started it. Her petty and prose are so awesome and I am just in the INTRO!
#Womanshistorymonth, #Disabledwomanshistorymonth, #AliceWong
Save the date, Wednesday 25th March at 6pm. We will be watching the live streaming of the celebration of life for Alice Wong at an in person gathering. Further details will be shared soon. We hope you can join us.
This was incredibly informative. Some of the essays were devastating, some infuriating, others were heartwarming. I really loved the ones about finding community. The whole thing was fascinating and good information for able-bodied people to learn.

After #AliceWong ‘s passing, I’ve decided to try to talk about my cancer in things like alumnae notes… in part in the hope that it will encourage folks to reach out while I’m still here (I have no pics of me from college)
#AliceWong tribute 👇👇👇👇👇
"[...]she describes how Israel's two-year genocide upended her son’s life. Once-stable routines —therapy sessions, predictable meals,playtime,and sleep — have vanished, leaving him struggling with anxiety, sensory overload,and speech challenges."

Incredible and heartfelt tribute to #AliceWong from @littlelobbyists.com ❤️💙
A collage of children holding up hand-decorated letters that spell out “THANK YOU ALICE!” Each child holds one letter, and many appear to have disabilities or use mobility devices. The background fades from blue to white, with the “Little Lobbyists” logo and the tagline “Advocating for Kids with Complex Medical Needs & Disabilities” at the bottom.
“No matter what happens, even if we never cross paths or speak again, I am grateful that we are in this universe together." — #AliceWong
Thank you, Alice.

Today, Little Lobbyists honors #AliceWong, a ferocious advocate for disability justice and disability culture-maker who died on November 14 at the age of 51. Alice was a larger-than-life figure in the disability community and a friend to Little Lobbyists
