face equality week 2023

[Image description: Drawing made for facial equality week. There is text reading 15-19 may on the side. In the upper row of characters, there’s a Black trans woman smiling; she has CNIV palsy and many birthmarks. Next is a white girl looking nervous, she has an orbital cleft scar. To her right is a boy with colorful hair, no arms and a bilateral cleft lip. In the center of the image is a little person with a downturned mouth and a back brace. On the right is a masculine woman with a burn scar on her face. Behind her is a person grinning with a scar going across their face. They have no eyes. In the bottom row there is a couple; a guy with a craniofacial condition smiling while holding hands with a tattooed woman with DS. Next to them is a man with parts of his skull missing and facial palsy. Half of his face is smiling. On the right is a couple walking; a Black person with NF1 using a white cane, excitedly talking to an Asian person with birthmarks using a rollator. Below, a Black girl with a skin condition is holding hands with a guy without an eye. Background is yellow. End description.]

sorry for not posting i haven't been using tumblr at all the past [long time] and face equality week is technically over but still on in my heart. I posted a thread on twitter recently about my thoughts regarding face difference rep in media as someone who was born with a cranial nerve defect.

for the few people interested in face equality (topic very important to me. i think you can tell by looking at the people in my art) i recommend this by face equality international it discusses tropes stereotypes and damage of ableist portrayals in media. especially read if you write/draw/make media yourself.
