Tilting the Lens on Instagram: "To mark today’s International Day of Persons with Disabilities, at @TiltingTheLens, we share a brief manifesto with some of our key principles featuring eight actionable tips and insights to embed into your day-to-day to help create a more equitable world for everyone. 1. Disability is not a negative word. Disability is central to human existence. We need to culturally reposition #disability from a perspective that is tied to sympathy or charity, to one that embraces #community and alliance based on #pride, creativity, dignity, and justice. 2. With Disabled people, not for Disabled people. Disabled people live in a world not designed for them. We must create solutions by partnering with Disabled people.

Post 1: 7 tips to make text-based web pages & emails more readable These tips will help you design text-based pages to maximise readability. That means more people will read your content! Post 2: 1. Don’t use decorative fonts. Instead, use common and recognisable fonts, whether they are sans or sans serif. We also recommend Atkinson Hyperlegible. Its developers have created a free font with readability in mind. Post 3: 2. Don’t use small text. Set body text to 16px or more. When you reduce to even 14px the number of people who find your text readable will drop. Post 4: 3. Use normal or medium font-weight Avoid using extra bold (900) or extra light (200) fonts for your text. These are hard to read for many people. Some people do find bold (700) weight readable. But normal or medium weight (400) fonts are easiest to r...
