Been thinking about how to contribute to #ScholarStrike when I'm overwhelmed with teaching, parenting & professoring during a global pandemic, extrajuidical murders, racial violence & resistance. Decided going to share some threads I've done on racism & ableism #DisCrit 1/
First a thread on the killing of #GynnyaMcMillen, a disabled Black girl who was killed at a youth prison when she refused to remove her sweatshirt. Her life mattered. 2/ #SayHerName #DisCrit #ScholarStrike https://twitter.com/DrSubini/status/849720385796923393
Remember Grace's story? A reminder of how we criminalized Black disabled girls daily but often erase their disability 3/ #DisCrit #DisabilitySolidarity #BlackLivesMatter #SayHerName #FreeGrace #ScholarStrike https://twitter.com/DrSubini/status/1283025025675608065
Shifting from color-blindness to color-evasiveness . Color-evasiveness better describes how people avoid talking about race to reproduce & accrue power. Plus the assumptions built into color-blindness as a term are deeply ableist 4/ #DisCrit #ScholarStrike https://twitter.com/DrSubini/status/851767632806150145
