Language is powerful, and the way we talk about our bodies, our experiences, and disability is no exception. In episode 2, Qudsiya interviews Dr. Sara Acevedo, Assistant Professor of Disability Studies at Miami University in Ohio. A scholar activist, she works at the intersection of Disability Studies in Anthropology, Neurodiversity, and spatial politics, specializing in critical disability studies. As a disabled woman of color, Sara uses a Disability Justice lens in her teaching and research.
In Episode 2, Sara and Qudsiya discuss the complex and fluid relationship between language and disability. They cover the differences between "person-first" and "identity-first" language, the history and impact of the word "Crip," the differences between "inclusion" and "access," and so much more.
