What is the idea

"I just challenged the @VoxProduct team to read a section of the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines https://w3.org/TR/WCAG21/) and to share a TIL with me every week day starting on Monday 4/29 and ending on May 16, Global Accessibility Awareness Day: https://globalaccessibilityawarenessday.org"

-- Lívia Labate, Principal Product Manager at Vox Media, Inc.

Why

We should all be designing products, websites, applications and everything with accessibility at the core. It shouldn't be an afterthought. The WCAG are complex and having a book club or today I learned club around the guidelines could help us all understand them better. A better understanding will help us all build products that are inclusive for everyone.

Potential Partner(s)?

Other CfA brigades? Web accessibility experts?

Additional Background Context

This could be an internal only working group that could meet during a pomodoro on project nights, or it could include other brigades and brigade members. Contact @anotherpatrickcollins to coordinate with other brigades that are interested.
