Alice Wong is now a columnist for Teen Vogue! 😃

From her post on twitter:

"My first piece is about the Medicaid unwinding process starting 4/1 when states will resume annual redetermination processes for all enrollees which could result in millions losing their coverage"

Headline: The “Unwinding” of Medicaid Coverage Will Be Difficult for Disabled Americans, Leave More People Uninsured

I was reluctant to start this one because I don't really like anthologies. But I had been listening to the #DisabilityVisibility podcast hosted by Alice Wong https://disabilityvisibilityproject.com/podcast-2/ so when I realized there was also an anthology I picked that. I still struggled with the format and I went back and forth between the audio book and paper book versions to finish it but I enjoyed the essays. 1/

reading this on a train, wearing an N100 mask, chest aching whenever i breathe in, while two people in this car, both without a mask, are hacking up a lung and not even covering their mouth, is just an incredibly wild experience #disability #DisabilityVisibility #LongCOVID
