Calling Up Justice uses our time and energy wisely. The Pareto Principle and crip time are two strategies that can help individuals, particularly those with disabilities, to manage their time and energy more effectively to reach their goals. The Pareto Principle, also known as the 80/20 rule, states that roughly 80% of effects come from 20% of causes. In other words, a small percentage of efforts or inputs often result in a disproportionately large output or result.
Conflict is inevitable and can sometimes stall a project or poison future professional relationships. Do you want to create a culture of accountability and repair in your relationships with contractors? Hoping to be prepared for and even possibly prevent conflict? Look no further than the Relationship Repair Clause created by Calling Up Justice.
Disillusionment, while unsettling at first, can catalyze positive transformations as it unveils the intricate layers of supremacy culture’s impact. This emotion becomes a vital awakening, shedding light on concealed biases and oppressive norms shaping societal paradigms. Understanding how supremacy culture hinders genuine connections and equitable opportunities fuels a journey of enlightenment and change. This awareness drives a reevaluation of values, fostering a commitment to dismantling harmful structures and nurturing a more inclusive world. Embracing disillusionment empowers individuals to challenge assumptions, broaden perspectives, and actively contribute to eradicating supremacy culture’s influence. Join the movement to leverage disillusionment for meaningful progress.
As an access doula, I had the opportunity to work closely with the Criptech + Gray Area Metaverse collaboration and provide my expertise in access design. One of the accessibility measures that we implemented was the use of clear masks from BendShape Barrier™, which were recommended by Lindsey Dolich Felt, the Leonardo Disability, Access and Impact Lead.
Awesome conversation about Woke in the Liberated Equity Diversity Inclusion Clubhouse Room. Really appreciated reviewing the history of the term, how it’s being used today and ideas about healing for justice producers. First used in the 1940s, the term “woke” has resurfaced in recent years as a concept that symbolises awareness of social issues and movement against injustice, inequality, and prejudice. James Baldwin said To be a Negro in this country and to be relatively conscious is to be in a rage almost all the time. Supremacy Culture wants you to be in denial. It pathologizes the word “woke” so that you’ll stop thinking. Not talking about racism is not the same as being anti-racist. To be in denial of supremacy culture is to be in support of it. Everyday we do not dismantle supremacy culture we increase its power. It’s killing us. Get woke. Stay woke.
VR, AR and spatial audio present significant access frictions and barriers for disabled users and creators. The CripTech Metaverse Lab, a collaboration between Leonardo CripTech Incubator and Gray Area, will gather ten disabled creatives to collectively experience immersive artworks, generate participatory aesthetic access, and create new speculative artworks culminating in Gray Area Festival 2023. The lab will imagine new creative pathways for experiencing metaverse artworks amongst participants and future audiences. The findings from this research lab will be shared via the publication of a white paper in Leonardo journal, an online research archive, and culminate in a series of talks, performances, and an exhibition for the 2023 Gray Area Festival this Fall.
Access riders are documents that detail information about an individual’s access requirements. They can stop endless conversations about access by offering a considered and detailed list of what might be needed when, to enable employers, colleagues, and others to simply know how best to support someone without assumptions and guesswork. These articles introduce what an access rider is, where and how it can be used and what you might want to include in yours.
Calling up Justice integrates the role of The Access Doula as a design and facilitation role for live performance in digital and physically shared spaces. It is more empowered and centered than an access coordinator. This role is for folks who want to help monitor the gathering, looking for ways to help enhance access. They negotiate access with all cross-disability participants. This role is flexible by necessity and political inclination. The Access Doula serves to legitimize support-giving by naming it while reframing ideas around access in this hybrid virtual moment.
Calling Up Justice uses the Just Transition framework in much of it’s work. We highly recommend these resources from Movement Generation. They offer this framework as a humble point of departure for folks interested in building collective vision and action towards Ecological Justice that does not separate humans from nature, or social equity from ecological integrity. For more on Just Transition framework and strategies from MG and others: Read MG’s Just Transition Zine; Visit Climate Justice Alliance’s webpage on Just Transition and
