- Authors
Rausch, Alissa; Joseph, Jaclyn; Steed, Elizabeth
- Abstract
This article explores the ethical obligation of those in the early care and education field to deconstruct ableism (and other --isms, such as racism, sexism, classism) and to reconstruct an understanding of social identity that is strengths-based and affirming. The authors describe the Dis/ability Studies and Critical Race Theory (DisCrit) framework of understanding ableism and provide examples of potential solutions for early childhood providers to explore the role of bias in inclusion practices and deconstruct dis/ability to enact systemic change for young children with dis/abilities and their families.
