Addressing Ableism and Sanism in Art and Design Education Addressing Ableism and Sanism in Art and Design Educa4on October 29, 2020 FADY: Alright. So good morning everyone. Thank you for coming to the second workshop about Ableism and Sanism in art and design educa@on. We have started recording. There are four people here who are going to kind of take us through this workshop. My name is Fady, I use he/ him pronouns. We also have Claire. Claire if you want to come and say hi. CLAIRE: Hi, I'm Claire. I used she/her pronouns. And Fady Did you email it to me? FADY: I sent it to you in the chat, in me, you, and Mariela's chat. CLAIRE: so I don't see it yet, but ok But OK thanks. FADY: And Mariela. MARIELA: Hi everyone, my name is Mariela and I use she/her pronouns. FADY: And Jennifer. JENNIFER: Hi everyone, I'm Jennifer and I use she/her pronouns as well. FADY: Awesome, so we're going to get right into it by star@ng with the you've seen this before. This is how you kind of organize yourself on teams. We'll be using the chat for some of the ac@vi@es. Please remember to mute and if you'd like to turn on cap@ons, you can do that by clicking on the three buTons there called "more ac@ons", and selec@ng the "turn on CC for live cap@ons". Alright, this is the Land Acknowledgement. OCAD University acknowledges the ancestral and tradi@onal territories of the Mississaugas of the credit, the Haudenosaunee, the Anishinaabe, and the Huron-Wendat, who are the original owners and custodians of the land which we live, work and create. The eXperience of colonialism is also about eXperiences of eXclusion and violence in higher educa@on. And the history of this ins@tu@on is implicated in violence against Indigenous people. This history has caused trauma. It has disabled indigenous people dispropor@onately, and our commitment to holis@c learning is also our commitment tp an accessible and equitable learning space. And these things are all @ed together. We wanna do a kind of short access check-in. So we understand "access" to be a shared responsibility and you'll hear that term throughout the presenta@on today. We'll strive to create a place where you don't have to disclose a disability or an impairment in order to get an accommoda@on or to par@cipate in the session, and in doing this we hope to kind of welcome disability and the changes it brings. You'll also hear that in the discussion, So if there's anything we can do about the technology or the setup or the way that we're about to go through things that can make it more accessible, please let us know. Claire or Mariela, we're also going to add all four of our emails to the chat so you can email us at any point if you'd like to talk to us privately during the session. And you can also of course use those emails later on to communicate with us. So maybe I'll just pause for 30 seconds and ask if anyone would like to change the setup in any way. OK man, silence is so nice it's so rewarding. Especially on zoom calls. I hope you enjoy that. Even some people might have found that anXiety inducing, but I thoroughly enjoyed that. Alright we are going to be doing something called shared notes throughout the session. We're going to take this opportunity to kind of prac@ce shared notes and something that you poten@ally could use in your class so you can actually -Claire or Mariela is going to share the link to the shared note Doc in the chat. Please go to it. We're going to need it for the first discussion and you can see that Annie and Tori, who are part of the FCDC, are going to actually prac@ce shared notes with us. You can also hOp on to one of those un@tled pages You don't have to write your name there, but if you'd like to see what it might look like might look like to kind of take notes while doing a session like this, some@mes we forget how both compleX it is for some folks to take notes on how easy it is for others. So you can prac@ce doing shared notes and we'll see in the end you know what we come up with and if we only have Annie and Tori's eXamples that's totally fine. They'll have essen@ally taken notes for the whole classroom. I wanna also say that, we said this last @me, that we want to make sure that we're not focusing on language. People confuse variety of language to describe their eXperiences. You know, people with disabili@es, disabled people, mad people, people with mental health issues, psychiatric differences. The language is a lot, and we're not here to police people's language. So let's focus on like the depth rather than the surface level things. It would be great if we don't have parallel conversa@ons in the chat. Please do ask ques@ons if you want to or ask for things that you need in the chat. Finally, let's all remember that we all have different eXperiences and levels of familiarity with these topics, and so people might ask ques@ons that we might think are beginner level or eXpert level, and let's welcome all of it in this session. Alright, so let's start with a ques@on. You can again do this in the group discussion on the shared notes, and the ques@on is: why do you think the number of students registered with SAS con@nues to rise year a_er year? We'll do that in the shared document. Will take me about two or three minutes to do that, and then I'm going to ask people to either chime in or all the things off of the shared doc. We're geng some really great answers in the group discussion here. There's less s@gma around disability, so students are more likely to disclose. the academic communi@es are increasingly accommoda@ng, There's more technology, and so therefore more I'm guessing it means that there might be more need for accommoda@on. Someone said there's increased class sizes, which means less student engagement, which leads to a disconnect and students feel alienated. And someone said they're acknowledging their educa@onal learning learning trauma. More students are geng support in secondary. Awesome, does anyone want to unmute and say more about their why they think there are more students registered? Year a_er year. That's fine, so I think we do have a sense of like there's both a An increase in students abili@es to advocate for themselves and request what they need. But then there's also like a structural issue, right? Systemic issue in how students are learning now that's very different. And I think those both things are true. It's interes@ng to me to think why do students need to register and I have a sense that they need to register because spaces are becoming increasingly inaccessible, and so what would that mean for us as faculty and as staff in crea@ng more accessible classrooms so students don't have to register as much with SAS. So just a quick recap from the last @me we defined "ableism" and "sanism", these kind of systems of oppression that are very are very much part of our in design educa@on or part of our world in general. We just got their presence in art and design educa@on and we talked about very simple things like deadlines as you know, being very neurotypical, requiring a set amount of @me, we talked about the pain@ng horse as like this representa@on of symbol of who belongs in art and design educa@on. We spent some @me unpacking the trope of the talented but troubled ar@sts and we discussed the role of outsider art and kind of dividing the community and saying who is part of it, what they can produce, what value their their art has. So this is some of the learning outcomes for this session we want to define and describe the differences between accommoda@ons and Accessibility. We want to describe and analyze the numbers at OCAD, eXplain the benefits and limita@ons of UDL approach or universal design for learning. And describe and determine kind of the best strategies and this will be a collabora@ve process that we take into. Alright, so this is an image that you'll have seen. There's three images on the screen like equity -Oh sorry, equality, accommoda@on, Accessibility. The first one has three people standing at the board, all star@ng from the same place. The second one has a ramp and a step up, and the third one the board has been eXpanded. You'll have seen this image in other conteXts. Something to do with baseball. I'm sure we brought into the educa@on space to hopefully give us a liTle more. Our conteXt. Reflec@ng on the images that you see I wonder if you think these are truthful representa@ons, and I wonder if you think something is missing and what that might be.

  • Sanism and the Law Michael L
    Virtual Mentor American Medical Association Journal of Ethics October 2013, Volume 15, Number 10: 878-885. MEDICINE AND SOCIETY Sanism and the Law Michael L. Perlin, JD “Sanism,” an irrational prejudice against people with mental illness, is of the same quality and character as other irrational prejudices such as racism, sexism, homophobia, and ethnic bigotry that cause (and are reflected in) prevailing social attitudes [1, 2]. It infects both our jurisprudence and our lawyering practices. Sanism is largely invisible and largely socially acceptable. It is based predominantly upon stereotype, myth, superstition, and deindividualization and is sustained and perpetuated by our use of alleged “ordinary common sense” (OCS) and heuristic reasoning in irrational responses to events in both everyday life and the legal process [3, 4]. I have written extensively about the roots of the assumptions that are made by the legal system about persons with mental disabilities. These mistaken assumptions include: that people with mental illness are erratic, deviant, sexually uncontrollable, emotionally unstable, superstitious, lazy, and ignorant; that they demonstrate a primitive morality; they are invariably more dangerous than persons without mental illness, and such dangerousness is easily and accurately identified by experts; that for a person in treatment for mental illness to decline to take prescribed antipsychotic medication is an excellent predictor of (1) future dangerousness and (2) need for involuntary institutionalization; that people with mental illness should be segregated in large, distant institutions because their presence threatens the economic and social stability of residential communities; that they give in too easily to their basest instincts and do not exercise appropriate self-restraint [5].

  • Neurodiversity Studies
    Neurodiversity Studies Building on work in feminist studies, queer studies, and critical race theory, this vol• ume challenges the universality of propositions about human nature, by questioning the boundaries between predominant neurotypes and ‘others’, including dyslexics, autistics, and ADHDers. This is the first work of its kind to bring cutting-edge research across disciplines to the concept of neurodiversity. It offers in-depth explorations of the themes of cure/ prevention/eugenics; neurodivergent wellbeing; cross-neurotype communication; neu• rodiversity at work; and challenging brain-bound cognition. It analyses the role of neuro-normativity in theorising agency, and a proposal for a new alliance between the Hearing Voices Movement and neurodiversity. In doing so, we contribute to a cultural imperative to redefine what it means to be human. To this end, we propose a new field of enquiry that finds ways to support the inclusion of neurodivergent perspectives in knowledge production, and which questions the theoretical and mythological assump• tions that produce the idea of the neurotypical. Working at the crossroads between sociology, critical psychology, medical humani• ties, critical disability studies, and critical autism studies, and sharing theoretical ground with critical race studies and critical queer studies, the proposed new field – neurodiversity studies – will be of interest to people working in all these areas. Hanna Bertilsdotter Rosqvist is an Associate Professor in Sociology and currently a Senior Lecturer in Social work at Södertörn University. Her recent research is around autism, identity politics, and sexual, gendered, and age normativity. She is the former Chief Editor of Scandinavian Journal of Disability Research. Nick Chown is a book indexer who undertakes autism research in his spare time.

    COPAS—Current Objectives of Postgraduate American Studies 18.2 (2017) Scars for Life(s) Jessica Suzanne Stokes ABSTRACT: This essay considers the relationship between performance, disability, and the ephemera of wounding experiences by using bodily scars as method for multi-temporal and multi-spatial reflection. Thinking through the “Freak Show” season of the television series American Horror Story, this essay locates coalitional potential in scars as they offer sites from which to create new stories of the past. KEYWORDS: Disability; Scar; Performance; Culture Operation Ephemera Some people take first day of school pictures to document the passage of time. Instead, I have x-rays, photos of blue hairnets that barely cover my head, and more photos of my feet right after the cast is sawed away, right before the stitches or staples come out because the surgeries I had were my father’s surgeries, and my brother’s surgeries and… These photos don’t document time linearly. They aren’t displayed in an album in a particular order. They all sit in one shoe box. Each merges with the next: purple cast fragments, screws lodged in bone, staples in a row, beforeafter while afterbefore, white walls, blue hairnets, hospital blankets, IV drips, purple cast fragments. The scars are reopened by new operations. I’ve lost track of the number of surgeries. I certainly don’t remember the dates (see figure 1). Figure 1. Jessica Stokes’ Foot X-ray, Grand Rapids.

  • South African CRIME QUARTERLY No
    South African CRIME QUARTERLY No. 70 | 2021 Hate crime based on disability in South Africa Lessons for law reform Willene Holness1 holnessw@ukzn.ac.za https://doi.org/10.17159/2413-3108/2021/vn70a5597 When contemplating whether to introduce disability hate crime as a new substantive offence or as a penalty enhancement of existing crimes, legislators should consider the peculiarities of reporting, investigating and prosecuting hate crimes perpetrated against disabled people. This article argues that existing laws on sexual offences, domestic violence, harassment, and unfair discrimination should be strengthened, and research should be conducted to identify the appropriate initiatives to prevent and attend to disability hate crime by and with persons with disabilities. Creating a substantive hate crime based on disability has symbolic value, but should only be considered if the existing challenges to full and meaningful participation by persons with disabilities in investigative and court proceedings are addressed through appropriate procedural accommodations. Introduction disability, and theft by people close to the victim Hate crimes against persons with disabilities (such as care givers or family members).3 These are victimisations aimed at someone specifically crimes also include ‘bullying, cyber-bullying, because of their disability.2 Such victimisation physical violence, sexual harassment and take various forms, including physical attacks assault, domestic violence, financial exploitation that target disability aids; cruelty, humiliation,

For marginalised populations, the climate discourses around adaptation, mitigation, vulnerability and resilience are of particular importance. This paper considers the silence around disabled people in these discourses. Marci Roth of the Spinal Cord Injury Association testified before Congress in regards to the Katrina disaster: [On August 29] Susan Daniels called me to enlist my help because her sister in-law, a quadriplegic woman in New Orleans, had been unsuccessfully trying to evacuate to the Superdome for two days. […] It was clear that this woman, Benilda Caixetta, was not being evacuated. I stayed on the phone with Benilda, for the most part of the day. […] She kept telling me she‟d been calling for a ride to the Superdome since Saturday; but, despite promises, no one came.

  • Diversity, Equity and Inclusion – Glossary of Terms Ableism
    Diversity, Equity and Inclusion – Glossary of Terms Ableism- discrimination against persons with mental and/or physical disabilities; social structures that favor able-bodied individuals. (The National Multicultural Institute) Acculturation- the process of learning and incorporating the language, values, beliefs, and behaviors that makes up a distinct culture. This concept is not to be confused with assimilation, where an individual or group may give up certain aspects of its culture in order to adapt to that of the prevailing culture. (The National Multicultural Institute) Affirmative Action- proactive policies and procedures for remedying the effect of past discrimination and ensuring the implementation of equal employment and educational opportunities, for recruiting, hiring, training and promoting women, minorities, people with disabilities and veterans in compliance with the federal requirements enforced by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP). (Society for Human Resources Management) Ageism- discrimination against individuals because of their age, often based on stereotypes. (The National Multicultural Institute) Ally- a person who takes action against oppression out of a belief that eliminating oppression will benefit members of targeted groups and advantage groups. Allies acknowledge disadvantage and oppression of other groups than their own, take supportive action on their behalf, commit to reducing their own complicity or collusion in oppression of these groups, and invest in strengthening their own knowledge and awareness of oppression. (Center for Assessment and Policy Development) Anti-Oppression - Recognizing and deconstructing the systemic, institutional and personal forms of disempowerment used by certain groups over others; actively challenging the different forms of oppression.

INTRODUCTION MAGINE the uproar if a published appellate court decision in 1974 re- ferred to an adult person of color as a "boy." Imagine the fallout if the New York Times stated in 1964 that Plessy v. Ferguson was the lead case on the question of "separate but equal" accommodations. Imagine if, ten years after Roe v. Wade, a Congressman had been complimented for his "thoughtful" remarks when he stated that, not only was it still legal to criminalize first-trimester abortions, but that a state could also lawfully bar all women from using contraception. Imagine if left-liberal candidates in one of the most progressive legislative districts in the country ran for office on a platform of excluding racial minorities from living in that district. These acts would quickly, and correctly, be labelled either as racist, sexist or bizarre, and would be decried by well-meaning citizens at virtually all points on the political spectrum. Yet, when we substitute "mentally disabled person" for "person of color" or "racial minority" or "woman," we let such acts pass without notice or comment.'
