Disabled And Here

Showing up and masking

Four disabled people of color block a sidewalk while holding signs protesting mask bans. At the front, a Black person balances with a cane while gripping a “Mask bans = Eugenics” sign and sitting in their rollator. Behind them, a Black person holds a “We keep us safe” sign while sitting. The two other protestors are staggered further back and slightly out of focus.

Everyone is wearing differently colored KN-95s.
