Discussion 8: What Does Disability Justice Look Like? 275 words)- See attached PDF for assigned readings

After reading this week’s readings and going through the four examples of disability justice organizing, discuss the following questions with your classmates. Consider the different motivations and goals of the disability justice actions that we studied. How do the goals and political ideologies of the organizations creating them impact the strategies and tactics that they use? What intersections of the power structures of ableism, heteropatriarchy, white supremacy, settler colonialism, and capitalism can you identify within the complex cases put forward?

Discussion 9: The Take (275 words)  – see the film “the take” by Avi Lewis

The final discussion activity of the year requires that you watch the documentary film produced by Avi Lewis and Naomi Klein called, The Take. This film tells the story of the worker recuperated factories following the financial collapse in Argentina in the early 2000s. It is an important example of the depths and power of direct action and prefiguration as tools to bring about social change. After watching the documentary, you will participate in a discussion forum where you will discuss the following questions: If The Take is an act of prefiguration, what is the world that these workers are trying to bring about? What does the employment structure look like in their workplace? How is that different than most of our workplaces today? Based on the risks and challenges discussed, which ones apply most to the workers engaged in The Take? Do you believe that they will be successful?
