Ableism is one of the many branches of White Supremacy. Ableism works alongside racism, homophobia, sexism, transphobia to uphold White Supremacy values. In order to live in an equitable world for all, we need to understand ALL of the tenants of White Supremacy and work to dismantle it both in and around us.

Kelsey Lindell is a disabled woman on a mission to educate one million people about disability rights and ableism this year. She started her advocacy work in Cape Town, South Africa working with justice focused organizations that prioritized listening to local people and empowering them with resources they needed to create changes they wanted to see in their communities. She has worked in the media, marketing and entertainment circles ever since and saw a huge need for education surrounding how to create inclusive content that didn’t fall into stereotypes, tropes, and stigmas that oppress the disability community. While doing that work she built an extensive network of partner organizations that can transform all areas of a company - from hiring and retention of disabled employees, to building physically accessible spaces, to providing benefits that actually empower the disabled community.
