What will it take to spur people on a massive scale to tear down the system of ableism when doing so will leave no cushion between us and the actuality of all the ways we will suffer, we will be in pain, we will be unable to do what we want, and eventually, inevitably, we will die? How do we build a politic that stares into the face of our own end and finds a way to continue? It’s an unendurable task.
