Climate change is a Black disability issue. On top of rent, this tenant is paying out of pocket for life saving medication because the pharmacy can’t bill Medicaid. This truly should be illegal.
The Debt Collective 🟥@StrikeDebt

Can't believe we're even saying this but the City of Asheville Public Housing Authority is forcing residents to pay rent for the month of October—right after historic climate devastation leaving many with nothing.

Cannot stop thinking about all the disabled people who literally can’t leave. Who will be left for dead in their homes or care facilities or hospitals. Whose demise will be a predictable result of eugenics, ableism, racism, climate denialism, and capitalism. What have we done.
Hannah Riley Fernandez@hannahcrileyy

just watched an NBC meteorologist cry on air talking about how terrifying Hurricane Milton is & then the next thing I saw was a woman in the evacuation zone saying she has literally nowhere to go — all the hotels are booked & she doesn’t have a lot of money & has 4 dogs/6 kids.
