Performative Activism (And How Your Activism Could Be Ableist) [CC]

Описание: Part of being an activist is being intersectional, including everyone in your activism. And I've noticed a pattern of activism that includes every minority except disabled people. And not only that, but causing a lot of harm to us in the process. So let's talk about it.

(Also I want to acknowledge that some of the things I say in this video are considered "hot takes", I am happy to have a discussion about it but I ask that you please remember to stay kind in the comments. Thank you!!)

Note: This video is several years old. Disability conversations and scientific information are constantly evolving, so older videos may contain information or thoughts that have been reevaluated since their original posting date (and/or may have been outdated at the time and I still had things to learn). I am slowly working to re-make older somewhat out-of-date videos, this may be one of them, but please watch with this in mind! With this video in particular, there are MANY different ways of being an activist and I may not have acknowledged all of them here.
Also please note that I made this pre-transition, I use they/them pronouns now :)
