RESOURCES
Please note that, as part of maintaining an archive about our community, some materials may contain outdated concepts, harmful language, or documentation of exceptionally traumatic events. We encourage you to pause and move through this section with care, after assessing your capacities at this very moment.
Additionally, please note that the information gathered does not necessarily reflect the ethos of Cripple. Some materials are preserved for contextual and historical accuracy—not endorsement—and remain part of the record to trace how disability has been framed, represented, misrepresented, and contested over time.
Cripple is also continually expanding these resources. Because many links direct to external sites, some may change or stop working over time—this, too, is part of the archival process. Cripple reviews and updates the collection on an ongoing basis, within our capacity. Thank you for your
If you are using a screen reader, the list below is fully hyperlinked, arranged in alphabetical order, and includes hashtags at the very end. Do you have suggestions of content to add? To remove? Updated links? Anything else? Please contact cripple at studio (at) cripple (dot) info.
