This is so powerful: “Whatever field you’re in—from general medicine to physical therapy to dietetics—your education did not teach you how to treat fat patients. That means you have a lot to learn and you need to seek out knowledge from experts—fat people themselves. You need to seek out work from fat people of all perspectives, of all walks of life and you will not only learn how to do better, but develop the knowledge base necessary to truly serve the people placed in your care.” 👏🏽

I am a big fan of Mikey! I follow them on Twitter. So grateful for their activism for all of us fatties!
