Disability Education 101: Are you being ableist without realising?!

Welcome back to another episode of Disability Education 101! I’m Chronically Jenni, and I’m here to tell you all the things you never learned about disability. Ableism isn’t just someone saying a slur or blocking a disabled parking bay; it shows up in loads of different ways, and not all of them are obvious. So, let’s break down the different types of ableism you might come across: Systemic ableism is built into structures ,like inaccessible housing, long waits for benefits, or workplaces that don’t accommodate disabled people. Interpersonal ableism is the stuff people say or do, like ‘you don’t look disabled’ or questioning someone’s mobility aid. Internalized ableism is when we start to believe those messages, feeling like a burden or trying to hide our needs. Benevolent ableism sounds kind, but it’s still harmful, like calling us inspirational for just existing, or making choices for us instead of with us. Invisibility-based ableism is when people doubt your disability because it’s not visible and assume that means it’s not real. Medical ableism happens in healthcare when symptoms are dismissed, everything gets blamed on one diagnosis, or our quality of life is assumed to be poor. It’s when they prioritise a ‘cure’ over support and management Cultural ableism is all around us, in film, TV, and media that either leaves us out or only shows harmful stereotypes like portraying disabled people as villains, victims or inspirational tropes. And structural erasure is when disabled people aren’t considered at all, no ramps, no captions, no access. Ableism can be loud and obvious, or subtle and baked into everyday life, but the more we name it, the more we can challenge it.
