On “crip”: This site uses “crip” as a reclaimed political and cultural term from disability justice movements — not as a slur. Crip theory centers disabled people as agents with distinct knowledge, aesthetics, and politics. The term is used intentionally, in the tradition of Mia Mingus, Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, and the Sins Invalid collective.

On “disability”: We use disability as an identity and culture, not a diagnosis. We follow the social model: disability is produced by environments and systems that exclude, not by bodies or minds that deviate.
