Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.
So said Lewis Carroll in Through the Looking-Glass, the sequel to Alice in Wonderland. It's a whimsical quote, where Carroll challenges each of us to push the boundaries of what is conceivable, entertain improbable ideas and how this can have a transformative impact on our lives.
I usually send this email every day before breakfast. So I wondered, could we start believing six seemingly impossible things as we tackle accessibility and do this before we have had our morning coffee?
So here's my attempted list:
- People with disabilities are not a minority
- Accessibility isn't a feature
- Accessibility isn't a technical problem
- Accessibility isn't time-consuming and expensive
- You can't outsource accessibility
- We can make our website accessible
Stay tuned as we'll talk about the first impossible thing tomorrow: People with disabilities are not a minority.
