Disability / Language / Grace: An Introduction

Presented by: Kyra Freestar, Dayna Reidenouer, and D. Scott
Host: Dawn Schuldenfrei

Organized and presented by a team of editors who met through the Guild’s Editing with Disability/Illness/Neurodivergence monthly chats.

Disabled people are active members of every community. Every group of writers, readers, and editors includes people with disabilities. 

Join us for an introduction to the context and complexity of disability in the United States. Come away with a better understanding of disability, ableism/disablism, and disability justice. Strategize ways to use language, editing, and organizing skills to build a world where everyone is valued and everyone can thrive.
