BEING HEUMANN was so good, I had to see it twice! 🧡

The day after the @darcyawards, and a weekend filled with disabled joy, community, and so much love for us.

In select theaters November 6 and on @appletv November 13!

Thank you @eastersealssocal and @appletv for the invite. 

And a special shoutout to @mstatilee for leading accessibility on the film 👏 @sabeerahnajee and I teamed up to make sure Tati got her literal flowers 💐 for being an absolute badass 🔥

I 🧡 us.

Together, @InfiniteFlowDance and @Walmart Create Sparks transformed a Saturday afternoon shopping trip into a celebration of joy, visibility, and belonging. It’s not every day you coordinate dancers throughout a Walmart store, including Deaf and hard of hearing performers bringing American Sign Language into the heart of the experience to celebrate Disability Pride Month.

Set to Sapphire by Ed Sheeran featuring Arijit Singh, a song that beautifully bridges cultures, languages, and communities, this performance wove ASL into the choreography, becoming an expression of connection, reminding us that visibility, belonging, and celebration can be accessible to All!

#DisabilityPride is bigger than a moment, a month, or a single community.

It’s part of a global movement, and we’re grateful to every dancer, associate, partner, and community member who bought this spark to life to turn it into something unforgettable. 

#CreateSparks imagined by Walmart, where connection inspires action.

✨ALL BODIES ARE BEACH BODIES!✨
•
Sunday I jumped out of bed and (had to Irish goodbye most of RE friends- sorry! I love you so!) hoped on the freeway to Long Beach to celebrate Disability Pride Day at the Beach! ♿️🏝️
•
I can’t tell you how amazing it felt after spending the weekend at Rollettes Experience surrounded by our beautiful disabled community, to be able to drive an hour to the beach to celebrate our gorgeous community with even MORE friends who just GET IT. Lawwd knows I wouldn’t be half the advocate or nurse I am today if it wasn’t for the community and getting to learn from every single one of y’all.

The Disabled Community is beautiful and strong and CAPABLE OF ANYTHING!!!
.
Shout out to @livingwithclaireity, @kumirocks, and @wearequeerlydisabled for bringing this awesome event to life. Can’t wait for the next one!!! ♿️🌴☀️

✨✨ In partnership with @walmart , I produced and directed a flashmob to celebrate Disability Pride Month at the Walmart Supercenter in Rosemead, CA. What an experience!

Joy and liberation are essential to transforming systems. This day was nothing but full of joy. 

We paraded through the store’s aisles, then danced our hearts to Ed Sheeran’s “Sapphire.” With 1/3 of the dancers being Deaf and Hard of Hearing, we incorporated ASL choreography as a core component of the dance. Along the way, we got shoppers and Walmart Associates to dance with us.

Stay tuned for the video!

With Walmart’s mission being to “save people money so they can live better,” Walmart serves a broad demographic of people, including people with disabilities. 

Some accessibility features Walmart has intentionally incorporated include, sensory friendly hours, Caroline’s Carts, Aira visual interpreters, motorized shopping scooters, ScripTalk talking labels, and Braille prescription labels. 

We are honored to amplify Walmart’s work in accessibility through bringing a disability inclusive flashmob to life at a Walmart store. 

Big thank you to @zoya_theexplorer who pulled all the pieces together to make this happen. I met Zoya three years ago, and we’ve been talking about a disability inclusive flashmob at Walmart ever since. Lots of meetings, calls, and coordination to get us to this place.

Happy to share space with @diversability led by @imtiffanyyu and @kathryngoetzke of @theshinehopecompany at the event, and thank you @iwgroup for all the coordination in between. 

And thank you to @InfiniteFlowDance company artists and community dancers for dancing your hearts out for a message bigger than all of us combined!
