Thank you for the list of female disability civil rights advocates. I love Johnnie Lacy and Anita Cameron for their courage and unwillingness to back down. I believe Haben Girma is cut of the same cloth. I am a Canadian who was hired to write the history of the American Disability Civil Rights Movement. I did my darndest to balance the genders, but it was hard. Having a Canadian VPN helped me access a lot of Black Panther material so Brad Lomax was recognized and the BPP were recognized properly. Admittedly, as a Canadian, I find Alice Wong confusing because her writing is about politics most of which I do not understand.
