Training Details:
Disability isn’t often recognized as an identity or a culture, but for many with disabilities, it becomes a lifeline. Disability culture is rich and complex, and there are many ways to engage in it, even for non-disabled folks. This training ties together disability history, how culture and identity show up for people, and privilege and intersectionality within the disability community. It also explores the ways the Mad Liberation movement and Disability Justice connect not only to each other and the disability community but to other social justice movements, institutions, and society at large.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify own social identities
- Identify ways to engage in disability culture and advocacy
- Define Mad Liberation and describe how it fits into our current mental health system
- Broadly understand disability history and describe trends
- Understand and describe Disability Justice and how it impacts advocacy movements
