This 90-minute webinar is an introduction to disability identity, history, intersectionality, and movements for Disability Justice in school.  We will include activities that expose histories of ableism in schools and introduce you to disabled activist movements.

Real-time captioning of the webinar will be provided. Please contact us at professionallearning@uw.edu if you have other accessibility needs.

This course is facilitated by Adina Rosenberg & Sarah Arvey, collaborators on the One Out of Five: Disability History and Pride Project. Learn more about Sarah & Adina's partnership in this featured article from the 2020 edition of Research That Matters.
