per monthWhat do you know about the 20%? My name is Imani Barbarin and I am interested in creating narratives and media that centers disabled people from around the globe, a population that comprises nearly 20% of the globe- every race, religion, sexuality and gender. Many of you visiting this page are already familiar with who I am and my site: crutchesandspice.com, or on twitter. I thank you for your past and continued support in my writing and amplifying my voice as a disabled writer. As I look forward, though, I want to do more. Understanding the incredible need for representation of the disabled community from within, I intend to create more media to reflect who we are as individuals and as a group. I hope you can continue to help me in that vision. Please consider being a patron of my work. Love, Imani.

Thank you for sprinkling a little bit of pepper my way. I can use it on just about anything!

Much thanks for this pledge! Unlike the Cinnamon challenge, I can promise that your donation will not go to waste by people with too much free time on their hands.
Clove Spice

Merci, my friend. I will make sure these cloves go to a better place than an ash-tray behind a school gym from a phys ed teacher smoking and trying to make fedoras come back.
Garlic Spice
$25 or more per month ∙ 1 patron
Grazi, you have given the strength to brazenly go forth and speak truth to power regardless of the amount of garlic I've consumed that day.
Mustard Spice

Just like the faith the size of a mustard seed, I knew you'd come along! Thanks! Pledge at this tier and receive an annual thank you from me to be published on my website.
Ginger Spice

Used in some daring dishes. This pledge level allows me the freedom to take some risks in creating content. Donate at this level and get a Thank You post card from me!

Whoa. Donors like you aren't easily found in nature. Speaking of Pumpkin Spice, in pledging at this level, you can schedule a digital coffee (tea, if you please) date with me.
Goals
$123 of $200 per month
Reaching $200 would mean I would begin to generate income in order to dedicate more time to creating and evaluating content for the future.
