"I severely doubt that anyone at this conference intended to discriminate, but the lack of thought amounted to a microaggression nonetheless. Being overlooked in such a manner is not only personally embarrassing, but also professionally damaging. No speaker or attendee at that conference, by virtue of the fact that they had made it into the room, would have given its accessibility, or lack thereof, a second thought. So they wouldn't have noticed that anyone was missing because of something as seemingly innocuous as a flight of stairs." -- Annie Sharples, "Disabling Ableism in Classics", 2019-05-20
