Description

## 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.
