"The abuse Black queer women suffer at home is simply a microcosm of the great system of abuse that defines our lives from bedroom to the edge of our driveways and then far beyond."

need feature phone for the partially-abled
I need to find a cell phone that:
👓 Has large text so it can be read by the visually impaired (something like 20/400 vision).
🤳 Does NOT have tiny buttons on the side, or has some way to disable those buttons. (It can't have buttons that are too hard to see or that can accidentally be squeezed by hands that have lost their grip sensitivity.)
🌐 Can work with the AT&T cellular network (sim card).
🔰 For heaven's sake, is simple enough to just call people with. It doesn't need to have KaiOS apps or the like. Just calls and voice mail.
Feel free to boost, and thank you for your help.
