Decostruire l'abilismo: narrazioni attiviste e pratiche intersezionali di resistenza

Description

Ableist narratives continue to shape the perception of disability, contributing to the marginalization of disabled individuals within public discourse and restricting their full social participation. These stereotypes permeate media, language, and educational practices, reinforcing exclusionary dynamics. This article examines how digital activists challenge such representations through self-representation and counter-narratives, with a particular focus on the intersection of ableism and racism. The analysis of social media content reveals resistance strategies that redefine bodily identity and inclusion frameworks. This contribution underscores the importance of an intersectional and de-categorizing approach to fostering cultural change and developing genuinely inclusive educational practices capable of dismantling the barriers imposed by dominant stereotypes.
