Lessons on Ableism and Inclusion: A Reflection
In Joel Leslie’s moving and insightful reflective essay, he recounts his experiences negotiating the post-secondary system as a person with disabilities. Joel explores how internalized ableism, inclusive and accessible pedagogy, and marginalization have impacted his life as a student, and he connects these insights with academic thinking on these topics. This essay is an outstanding example of a reflection that weaves between personal and academic knowledge and leaves us better off for having taken the time to read it.
