In this workshop you will learn about the history of disability justice, explore links between ableism and white supremacy, and learn about ways to incorporate disability justice frameworks into movement building spaces.
The workshop will be followed by a 35-minute brainstorming session with Resource Movement’s Decentering White Supremacy and Ableism Working Group. We’ll create action items and next steps, taking principles and learnings from the workshop and applying them to our work at Resource Movement.
Accessibility: The event will be in English and streamed via Zoom. Live transcription services will be provided for this event. Please reach out through the Resource Movement Facebook page should you have any other access needs.
