About this listen

This week, Harper and Shruti discuss lateral ableism—when a disabled person is ableist to another disabled person. They share their personal experiences facing lateral ableism, pop culture examples, how lateral ableism connects to intersectionality and internalized ableism, and some of the most common ways lateral ableism manifests. They also discuss the complex dialectic of acknowledging that lateral ableism can come from pain, inaccess, and self-preservation while also condemning the harm and working to towards collective liberation.
