Debate: Acessibility -
April 8th 2024, 12:04 AM
What does accessibility mean to you? Who do you think requires greater accessibility and why? In what ways do you make your world accessible to others? In what way do you help provide access to others? How do you feel like accessibility can be improved in today's world?
1. To me, accessibility means complete inclusivity to the basic fundamental rights we have as human beings.
2. As someone who is hard of hearing and is now Deaf, I believe people like myself need greater accessibility.
3./4. I'm conscious of various disabilities both physical, developmental, and neurological. I add image descriptions for those with low visibility, I have my blog set to a mint-green background as I know white can be painful to the eyes, I allow a mobility limited person go ahead of me in line or through the door, and so on forth.
5. We're still a long way from accessibility to everyone, especially the Deaf, mobility-limited, vision sensitive, as well as the neurological and developmental divergent. Appropriately advocating for accessibility in a group or for groups that are not your own can really help those minorities feel validated and seen.
