Disability Justice

May 2026 Resource List

Hi Friends!

Disability justice is often glossed over or treated as an afterthought in the larger scope of justice work, but as with all forms of oppression, it is an integral strand in dismantling the web that is supremacy culture. Ableism is not a series of individual failures or oversights; no, it is a part of the system of oppression. The same system that decides who is worthy, who is human; it is part of the larger system that decides whose bodies are valuable, whose minds are legible, whose lives are worth sustaining, and whose needs are considered “too expensive” to meet.

Supremacy culture and ideology have built our socio-political system with intention, and every form of oppression was designed using the same logic. The logic that justified (and still justifies) colonization, enslavement, and the ruthless extraction of human beings for profit is the very same one used to deny humanity to our disabled community members.
