I've learned a lot about Implicit Association Test in the past few years, and it is important to recognize how our implicit biases may affect our actions. This applies to many different groups of people, and the disabled community is definitely an example. The more we are aware of the biases we have (which are often formed due to societal norms), the better we can learn and support the disabled community. What do you all know about implicit biases? -Kathleen Boyce (Forum Contest Entrant)

I’m probably most adept at examining accessibility issues. But the past 4 years have magnified my disability, and what I stand to lose in terms of my freedoms. I’ve never felt so marginalized as I did under Trump. And I realize that that’s a privilege, to have spent most of my life largely immune to issues with my disability. I also think I’m becoming less tolerant of accessibility issues than I used to be. I’d love to elaborate more. -Valerie F. (Forum Contest Entrant)
