Abstract

ABSTRACT Residing in a fundamentally ableist society while disability justice tends to be rendered invisible in many movements for equity and collective liberation, we aim to challenge the existing knowledge of disability and discuss how these understandings play out in education, policy, and other public spaces. In this kitchen-table talk, we begin by reflecting on our own positionalities in relation to disability to re/imagine alternative definitions of disability justice. We explore the ways language is used to reclaim disability pride and radically disrupt normative stories about disability and other marginalized identities. Being an ally requires centering the voices and lived experiences of disabled people at the intersections of differences, particularly those who are politically and socially alienated and erased.

反对残疾歧视的餐桌谈话:集体解放的残疾正义

我们生活在一个以残疾为根本的社会，而在许多争取公平和集体解放的运动中，残疾正义往往被忽视。我们的目标是挑战现有的残疾知识，并讨论这些理解如何在教育、政策和其他公共空间中发挥作用。在这个餐桌上的演讲中，我们首先反思我们自己在残疾问题上的立场，重新/想象残疾正义的其他定义。我们探索语言如何被用来重拾残疾自豪感，并从根本上颠覆关于残疾和其他边缘化身份的规范故事。作为一个盟友，需要把残疾人的声音和生活经历集中在分歧的交叉点上，特别是那些在政治和社会上被疏远和被抹去的人。

期刊介绍： Equity & Excellence in Education publishes articles based on scholarly research utilizing qualitative or quantitative methods, as well as essays that describe and assess practical efforts to achieve educational equity and are contextualized within an appropriate literature review. We consider manuscripts on a range of topics related to equity, equality and social justice in K-12 or postsecondary schooling, and that focus upon social justice issues in school systems, individual schools, classrooms, and/or the social justice factors that contribute to inequality in learning for students from diverse social group backgrounds. There have been and will continue to be many social justice efforts to transform educational systems as well as interpersonal interactions at all levels of schooling.
