Blogging Against Disablism day will be on Friday, 1st May. This is the day where all around the world, disabled and non-disabled people will blog about their experiences, observations and thoughts about disability discrimination. In this way, we hope to raise awareness of inequality, promote equality and celebrate the progress we've made.How to take part.
1. Post a comment below to say you intend to join in. I will then add you to the list of participants on the sidebar of this blog. Everyone is welcome.
2. Spread the word by linking to this site, displaying our banner and/ or telling everyone about it. The entire success of Blogging Against Disablism Day depends entirely on bloggers telling other bloggers and readers in advance.
3. Write a post on the subject of disability discrimination, disablism or ableism and publish it on May 1st - or as close as you are able. Podcasts, videocasts and on-line art are also welcome. You can cover any subject, specific or general, personal, social or political. In the previous three BADD, folks have written about all manner of subjects, from discrimination in education and employment, through health care, parenting, family life and relationships, as well as the interaction of disablism with racism and sexism. Every year I have been asked, so it's worth saying; the discrimination experienced by people with mental ill health is disablism, so naturally such posts are welcome too.
You can see the archives for previous years here: 2006, 2007, 2008.
Blogging Against Disablism Day is not a carnival of previously published material. The point about doing this around one day is that it is a communal effort and all the posts connect to one another. You can of course use your own post to promote other things you've written as you wish.
4. Come back here to Diary of a Goldfish on the day to let everyone know that you've posted and to check out what other people have written. I shall post links to everyone's posts throughout the day, creating an archive. However, I do need you to comment and leave the URL of your post or else I shan't find your post and won't be able to link to it.
Accessibility
Naturally, Blogging Against Disablism Day invites contributions from people with all variety of impairments and none at all. You are welcome to contribute with podcasts, video-blogging or anything else that allows you to take part. And whilst May 1st is when this all takes place, nobody who happens to have a bad day that Friday is going to be left out of the archive.
If anyone has any questions about web accessibility, JackP has suggested checking out the Accessify Forum.
I am not an expert on web accessibility myself, so if there are any suggestions about how I can make this day more accessible, please e-mail me at diaryofagoldfish at googlemail.com
The Linguistic Amnesty
Whilst discussions about language and the way it can be used to oppress or empower us are more than welcome, please respect the language that people, particularly to describe themselves in their own contributions. We all have personal preferences, there are cultural variations and different political positions which affect the language we use. Meanwhile, non-disabled contributors can become nervous about using the most appropriate language to use, so please cut everyone as much slack as possible on the day.
At the same time, do not feel you have to use the same language that I do, even to talk about "disablism". If you prefer to blog against disability discrimination, ableism or blog for disability equality, then feel free to do so.
Last year I wrote a basic guide to the Language of Disability which I hope might explain some of the thinking behind the different language disabled people prefer to use about themselves.
Links & Banners
To link back to this post, simply copy and paste the following code:
These banners have seemed popular over the last couple of years and I can't think of anything better. If anyone fancies editing these images or coming up with something new, then please do so. You are free to use these as you like, so long as you use them in support of Blogging Against Disablism Day. If you already have the banner, you just need to change the URL that it links to from last year's BADD. Otherwise, you simply need to copy the contents of one of these boxes and paste it on your blog, in a post or on the sidebar as you like. The banners come in two colour combinations and two sizes. The sizes are a 206 pixels square or 150 x 200 pixels.
This is the black and white banner which reads "Blogging Against Disablism". Here's the code for the square one:And here's the code for the narrower one (which can be seen here):

I'm definitely interested in participating this year! There is a lot of potential and just your opening commentary on language gave me a few ideas, particularly as it applies to law/policy.
ReplyDeleteThis is obviously a lot of work, and a labour of love. Thanks!
Best,
Day
www.DayInWashington.com
will be participating at the new blog at http://muse.dreamwidth.org, after a year of radio silence.
ReplyDeleteprobably posting on either disability & online community or the ever-popular "why you shouldn't ask me what my medical condition is the instant I identify myself (a nonvisibly disabled person) as disabled for purposes of being an ally, doing political work, telling you what my job/thesis is, or asking for accomodations?"
Count me in, too.
ReplyDeleteI am in for this year as well, Fishy friend. I'm so glad you're up to hosting it again. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to it. Count me in.

ReplyDeleteI'll be participating! FYI, I found the link to this on Shakesville.
ReplyDeleteI'll be posting at my LJ, http://www.livejournal.com/myownwench
Thanks for hosting and putting this together!
This is a very good initiative. Directed here from Wheelie Catholic. Count me in.
ReplyDeletewww.petertan.com/blog/
@Powder Hound - constructive is good, obviously, but as with the Goldfish's linguistic amnesty, I don't think there should be rules suggesting people can't let off steam about unfair treatment if they don't want.
ReplyDeleteMay I also suggest that any of you making reference to said event on twitter use the #BADD09 hashtag. I will certainly be tweeting links to my favourite BADD posts...
I'm in... I think you already knew that but thought I should comment here too.
ReplyDeleteOh, i forgot the signup part!
ReplyDeleteTrouble is a state of mind
I'll try to post something on May first. I have exams between then and now, however, so I can't guarantee that I'll remember.
ReplyDeleteBut of course.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone so far! And thanks for everyone promoting this elsewhere - there has been an excellent response!
ReplyDeleteWench - Thanks, but the link you've given here doesn't work and I can't find you by searching livejournal.
Fabulous event!
ReplyDeleteI write comics about my illnesses and how they effect my life. I'll do my best to make a great one for this - I'd better start planning it now!!
http://acomiclifeindeed.wordpress.com
I may, in the secure knowledge that no normal person would ever read my rblog anyway
ReplyDeleteNOGAN there's an appropriate word verification if ever I saw one
I hadn't heard about BADD until this year, and I'm interested in participating, because ablism has been on my mind recently. I might even do more than one post.

Sorry for not mentioning before, but can I suggest that anyone wanting information on web accessibility pops over to Accessify Forum where we will try to answer accessibility related questions, if you want to add that link to the accessibility part of your post.
ReplyDeleteIn the interests of transparency, I should point out that both myself and Gary Miller (who you will also find in this comment stream) are moderators on the forum, so anyone with accessibility questions is perfectly welcome to drop by and say hello!

ReplyDeleteI will participate on May 1st. THanks for creating this opp. It's important to take any platform to get our issues resolved like unfair housing discrimination. I want us all to fight for Universal Design. Come on people we have been fighting the accissability issues since the Rehabilitation act of 1977.

Emma
I'd love to do this, though I don't know yet if I'm going to use my LJ or finish setting up my new blog tonight.
ReplyDeleteA question, though--is it okay to post a bit early? I'm considering writing my post tomorrow, instead of on the actual day.
I'll give it a go this year. http://capacioushandbag.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteCautiously lest I say more than one or two things that are stupid or thoughtless, this temporarily-abled blogger would like to join in.
ReplyDeleteThanks for such an open invitation -- and I am so GLAD you have been doing this annual event for so long. (And sorry it's needed, but that's a different post).
Alyssa, obviously it'd be best to publish as close to May 1st as possible, but we're all in different timezones (if you're in the US, it'll probably be May 1st here in the UK before you go to bed on April 31st) people with ill health have good days and bad and some people will be otherwise occupied on Friday. So please, post as and when you're able. :-)
ReplyDeleteNorthLight again, from northlighthero.livejournal.com
ReplyDeleteI forgot to say the Name of my Blog is Her Own Self.
Thanks a bazillion for putting up with such a technodope. (*grin*)
I will be writing on Friday!
ReplyDeleteThis gave me the perfect excuse to finally start my disability blog.
ReplyDeletehttp://crippledcarnival.blogspot.com/
Not sure if it matters but I had to change the name on my account. The address is still http://crippledcarnival.blogspot.com/ and I'll still be taking part.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to give it a go!

I'm going to read your instructions a second time.
I'll be blogging to you on May 1st.!

I hope to be able to participate for this year's carnival...
ReplyDelete[ENGAGE SARCASM MODE]
ReplyDeleteGoldfish, traditionally, there are only 30 days in April. This may mean that you have less time to finish your BADD post than you thought...
[SARCASM MODE DISENGAGED]
I've just found out about BADD through a Twitter friend and it's really great timing! I'll be doing a post about the dire accessibility at Lichfield Trent Valley rail station and London Midland's refusal to do a whole lot about it. It'll be posted over at The Lichfield Blog.
ReplyDeletewon't be online 2moro, but have scheduled for the post to be put up on my blog www.resolve2day.blogspot and have put a gif animation on he page as well- hope the day is a success for all involved
ReplyDeleteoops, I didn't realize I needed to post here. I will be posting for BADD, with a crosspost to my livejournal here.
ReplyDeleteMy post was just put up today.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to participate.
