Disabling Ableism

What is Ableism?

  • Ableism is the discrimination and prejudice against individuals with disabilities. The underlying assumption feeding ableism is the belief that typical abilities are superior and that there is something inherently wrong with people with disabilities and they need fixing. 

     

    How can we fight ableism?

    We must ensure that individuals with disabilities are given the right to express their opinions ESPECIALLY when and where decisions are being made that will affect them.
