Profoundly brilliant and courageously candid, these advocates strive each day to center the lived experiences of people of color with disabilities. Valerie is a disability policy researcher and Azza is a community builder and Mad Pride activist, the work of both advocates is deeply steeped in Disability Justice Principles.
