Integrate Disability Day of Mourning vigils with Moral Fusion movement

 Since #Ddom2012 (original vigils were held on March 30, 2012 and moved to March 1 as of 2013) vigils separated mourning from the role of public services that could prevent future murders to focus on uplifting the morals of how 'we' as a civilized society treat the most vulnerable members to incrementally make a moral case for services funding. A person with a disability who needs personalized caregiving is demonstrating one's vulnerability and (current but changeable) lower functional abilities and skills in self-care. 


 Integrate #Ddom2017 and beyond with NC moral mondays and GA truthful tuesdays in all state, local and federal legislative sessions to practice the inside as well as outside organizing
strategy.  Per Rev. Dr. William Barber, a leader in NC moral mondays protests since 2013, the moral fusion organizing strategy relies on people not directly affected supporting people directly affected by a policy people trying to change.  Could it be model for self-advocate and ally cooperation in disability rights organizing?  Or to resolve a dispute between #whiteprogressivesTM working with #blacklivesmatter at #NN15 as one example of when the dispute occurred?


 Rather than fight repeated battles over 'who speaks for whom' to insist that people with disabilities lead advocacy 'conversations' and public discourse, summed up in the slogan 'nothing about us without us,' the moral fusion movement organizing strategy values collaboration between people directly affected and not directly affected in developing public discourse as equal partners.  




 Don't know anything about moral mondays and truthful tuesdays movements for civil rights or the NAACP chapters that organized them?  Or 'who is Rev. Dr. William Barber?'  Here's some 'homework' to read and a video to watch.
