#vted Reads: Care Work with Dr. Winnie Looby by The 21st Century Classroom published on 2022-04-19T16:19:51Z Welcome, listeners, to another episode of vted Reads: talking about books by, for and with Vermont educators. In this episode... we own an oversight. On this show, we are dedicated to breaking down systems of inequity in education. We administer flying kicks to the forehead of intersectional oppression! But we haven't yet talked about disability. So in this episode, we fix that, as we chat with Dr. Winnie Looby, who coordinates the graduate certificate in disability studies at the University of Vermont. Dr. Looby also identifies as a person with a disability, which is important, listeners, because the rallying cry of disability advocacy has long been "Nothing about us, without us." So we're here, we're clear, and we're talking about "Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice", by Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha. Let's limber up those kicking legs, folks, and talk about how disability too, is an equity issue.
