Disabled & social justice organiser & activist Alice Wong has died So devastating Adored everything she did Especially loved her work around disabled sexuality She built community around disabled people getting to express sexuality with each other & it's such a beautifully organiser thing to do

Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated
