Black History Month Moving Firm In Power and Pride This year, we proudly spotlight, Mildrette Hill and Nasa Begum, two Black/Global Majority Disabled activists who campaigned with power and pride. Through their powerful leadership within the Disabled People’s Movement, they have helped break down barriers and highlight intersecting injustices, creating lasting change for current and future generations. Mildrette Hill, Nasa Begum and several others co-wrote the book ‘Reflections’ (1994), which was radical for its time. We celebrate, with pride always, their commitment and unapologetically revolutionary activism.
