“While your there you can make a difference.”
(William Shatner as Captain James T. Kirk)
Translation: It is our responsibility no matter
where we are to be a force for positive change.
What Kind of Oppression Are We
Talking About?
“Ableism, sometimes referred to as 'disableism’ is the systematic
oppression of a group of people with disabilities. This form of
oppression is manifest in the combination of persona) prejudices,
cultural expressions and values, and social forces that marginalize
people with disabilities and portray them in a negative light, thus
oppressing them.” (Mullaly, 2010 P. 215)
An Example of Ableism
 My apartment at the U of L
 Mobility problems
 Attempted solutions
“The weak man knows the value of strength,
knows the value of power.” (Stanley Tucci as
Abraham Erskine) Translation: True power is
when we understand and except every part of
ourselves
The Anti-Oppressive Framework
 Anti-Oppressive Practice: From a Personal Level
 Focus: Education and Empowerment
 Theories: Ability and Structural Social Work
Why I Chose This Framework
 A lack of communication and understanding between the
groups involved.
Able-Bodied = Dominant Culture
Disabled = Subculture
 A tendency to want to over come personal barriers
before attempting larger group barriers.
 Fragmentation among the different oppressed
“disabled” groups in society. Eg. Wheelchair bound,
blind, hearing impaired, mentally disabled may view all
of their oppressions as different.
The Anti-Oppressive Practice In
Action
 Thmost effective using support group for disabled
people.
 This would allow for individuals to gain a new
perspective and understanding of themselves and
as a part of a larger oppressed group in society.
 Participating in this group would give the
participants a sense of empowerment that could
encourage them to move towards political action.
Example of The Anti-Oppressive
Framework In Action
Topics Covered In The Group
 Understanding
Oppression
 Dominant Language
And Values
 Social Policy
 Personal Actions and
Stereotypes

Oppressions
