Workers built solidarity by rejecting the 'deserving vs. undeserving' disabled model and scarcity approach to access.
Of course, we did not accomplish these wins on our own, even within the disability justice network we had built. We expanded and began working with other UC-based coalitions, such as Cops Off Campus and Cost-of-Living Adjustment 4 All, as well as parent workers and international workers, because all of our fights are connected.
This expansion of solidarity and mutual support has led our group to take a next step in achieving the demands we didn’t win in our contract: the right to safe and healthy workplaces. With others we met in the strike, we recently wrote and released apamphlet encouraging UC workers to invoke ADA protections and request accommodations in the form of layers of protection through campus disability programs.
