It's horrific how disabled people are dying due to being left behind in the wildfires, where firefighters aren't letting relatives or friends go in to save them (or even going themselves to save them).
Our society deems our lives as expendable and not worthy of life. It's ableist and horrifying, and I hate it.
So reach out to your disabled friends. Ask how you can help them with safety plans for such situations, and then follow-thru.
Stop leaving us to die.
@Aaidanbird Absolutely, we need disaster response plans which feature helping vulnerable people.

Something Imani Barbarin (@crutches_and_spice) said a while back has really stuck with me: When she's watching video footage of a disaster, like a fire or a school shooting, she looks for the disabled people. Because they usually get rescued last. Which can mean not getting out at all.
