Make sure you check out @Olas_Truth and @ProjectASCEND for resources on living with disabilities! #WorkingWOC
I'm disabled from a heart transplant. Our health suffers due to loneliness. Many professions are predominantly white & we spend most of our day at work. The isolation from community & microaggressions we feel at work can cause depression, anxiety, & heart disease. #WorkingWOC
