This training will explore the varied ways ableism and racism intersect in our understanding, relating, and constructing of others.  Racialized Ableism is a term that describes the compounded impact of racism and ableism within one experience. The approach will be grounded in a disability justice, Black Liberation, and Antiracism principles as defined by Tema Okun’s “Divorcing white supremacy” framework. Participants will leave with a greater awareness and understanding of the intersections, as well as some takeaway strategies for individual and professional change management.
