00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:36.000
IMAGE, THIS IT IS AN ARTWORK FROM

FINNAGAN.  IT IS A COLLECTION OF

00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:47.000
 BENCHES WITH A DOG ON THE GROUND, THE 

00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:51.000
MOST PROM NEPTUNE BENCH

 WANT TO AGREE.   

00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:05.000
THIS MEANS WHAT IT MEANS TO BE PUBLIC, 

00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:08.000
WHAT CONSTRUCTION OF PUBLIC IS AND HOW 

00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:11.000
ACCESS IS UTILIZE TO RECONSTRUCT THE 

00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:14.000
PUBLIC. TO THINK ABOUT MUSEUM AS A 

00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:17.000
SITE, THAT IS INACCESSIBLE, AND

00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:20.000
 THE INTERVENTION OF THE

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:22.000
 SEAT CAN CHANGE THE WAY THAT PEOPLE 

00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:25.000
INTERACT WITH THE ENTIRE INSTITUTION. 

00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:28.000
AND THAT IS LIKE THE WORK OF ACCESS 

00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.000
UNDER A FRAMEWORK OF SOLIDARITY ECONOMY 

00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:33.000
THAT WE WILL GO INTO TODAY. THIS IS 

00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:36.000

IF YOU WANT TO MOVE AROUND, WE INVITE 

00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:47.000
YOU TO DO THAT.   

00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:50.000
BOTH OF US CHEYENNA AND

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:53.000
 MYSELF ARE CONNECTED TO PEOPLE IN 

00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:56.000
DIFFERENT WAYS. PEOPLESHUB

00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:59.000
 IS AN ONLINE MOVEMENT SCHOOL THAT IS

00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:03.000
 ALL ONLINE, PREPANDEMIC. THE

00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:06.000
 IDEA IS TO BE ABLE TO CONNECT PEOPLE 

00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:09.000
ACROSS GEOGRAPHIES WITH A SPECIFIC 

00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:12.000
FOCUS IN THE U.S. SOUTH AND APPALACHIA.

 DIFFERENT WAYS.

00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:37.000
 AND I INVITE CHEYENNA TO COME

00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:38.000
 ON.   

00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:41.000
>> CHEYENNA LAYNE WEBER:  MAKING SURE 

00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:45.000
YOU WERE DONE. HI EVERYBODY, I AM

CHEYENNA I USE SHE AND HER, I AM BASED

00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:53.000
 IN 

00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:56.000
WANAPE, BROOKLYN, NEW YORK CITY.  

00:05:56.000 --> 00:05:59.000
I AM A WHITE, ALMOST MIDDLE AGED WOMAN.

00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:03.000
 GOT A PONY TAIL ON THE SIDE. AND

00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:06.000
 I AM SITTING IN FRONT OF A WHITE

00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:10.000
 GAUZY BACKGROUND. I AM INTERESTED IN

00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:12.000
 BEING HERE IN PART BECAUSE AS A

00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:14.000
 DISABLED PERSON, I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO 

00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:16.000
FIGURE OUT HOW TO LIVE UNDER CAPITALISM 

00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:19.000
FOR A LONG TIME.   

00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:23.000
STARTING IN A RURAL AREA

00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:27.000
 WHERE I GREW UP IN

00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:30.000
 WEST VIRGINIA, SOLIDARITY ECONOMY

00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:34.000
 IS A PATH TO EXPLORE LIBERATION WITH

00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:36.000
 COMMUNITIES DISABLED AND NOT, WHO ARE

00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:39.000
 STRUGGLING TO MEET THE NEEDS. WITH 

00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:41.000
THAT, I LIKE TO MOVE US ON TO 

00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:44.000
ACKNOWLEDGE A LITTLE BIT. ABOUT THE 

00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:45.000
HISTORY AND THE PRESENT. 

00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:48.000

00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:51.000
TO SET CONTEXT. TURTLE ISLAND,

00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:54.000
 WHICH IS THE INDIGENOUS NAME FOR NORTH 

00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:58.000
AMERICA HAS BEEN HOME TO NATIVE PEOPLE 

00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:02.000
FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS AND STILL IS.

00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:06.000
 THE SETTLER

00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:10.000
 COLONIAL STATE WAS BUILT ON

00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:13.000
 STOLEN NATIVE LAND WITH STOLEN

00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:15.000
 LABOR AND LIVES OF AFRICANS AND OTHER 

00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:19.000
PEOPLE OF COLOR. THE FOUNDATIONS OF 

00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:22.000
OPPRESSION INCLUDING ABLEISM REST IN 

00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:25.000
NOTION OF SUPREMACY. IT IS HUMAN

00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:28.000
 PRIORITIES ALL OVER FORMS OF LIFE.

00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:32.000
 THE WORK WE DO IN ALWAYS WITHIN THIS 

00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:34.000
CONTEXT. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS 

00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:36.000
WORKING OUTSIDE THIS CONTEXT. AND THAT 

00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:39.000
INCLUDES WHEN WE ARE LOOKING AT 

00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:42.000
SOLIDARITY SYMPATHY AND DISABILITY 

00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:45.000
JUSTICE, EVERYTHING WE DO MUST BE 

00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:48.000
RESPONSIVE TO THE CONDITIONS. AND

00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:50.000
 I WILL TURN IT BACK TO YOU DUSTIN.   

00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:53.000
>> DUSTIN GIBSON:  THIS IS DUSTIN. ON 

00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:55.000
THE SCREEN, THERE IS IMAGES OF A

00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:59.000
 BUNCH OF RAMPS OF MATERIAL THAT IS 

00:07:59.000 --> 00:08:02.000
ALUMINUM, WOOD, THIS IS ARTWORK FROM

00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:05.000
 PARK. AND THERE IS BASELINE 

00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:07.000
VALUES.  THE VALUES ARE HOW WE APPROACH 

00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:09.000
SOME OF THE DISABILITY JUSTICE WORK 

00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:13.000
THAT WE ARE ENGAGED IN. THE FIRST BEING 

00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:16.000
IS LAW IS NOT A MORAL

00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:20.000
 COME PASS. TO UNDERSTAND

00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:21.000
 CHEYENNA LAID OUT, IT IS A COLONIAL

00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:24.000
 PROJECT, THE LAW EXISTS WITHIN THAT, 

00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:26.000
AND THAT IS NOT GOING TO PROVIDE 

00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:29.000
LIBERATION FOR ANY OF US DISABLED 

00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:31.000
PEOPLE IN PARTICULAR. SO WE KNOW THAT 

00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:34.000
JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING IS ACCESSIBLE 

00:08:34.000 --> 00:08:37.000
UNDER THE ADA DOESN'T MEAN IT IS 

00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:39.000
ACCESSIBLE OR WE CAN ENGAGE WITH IT.   

00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:42.000
SO WHAT WE WANT TO DO WITH DISABILITY 

00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:45.000
JUSTICE IS GO BEYOND THAT. THE NEXT IS

00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:48.000
 PROXIMITY TO DISABILITY DOESN'T EQUATE

00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:51.000
 TO HAVING A DISABILITY. MEANING

00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:54.000
 JUST BECAUSE YOU KNOW OF SOMEBODY THAT 

00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:58.000
IS DISABLED, YOU MEAN UNDERSTAND

00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:01.000
 IT IN AN INTRICATE 

00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:06.000
WAY. THIS IS IMPORTANT WHEN WE THINK

00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:09.000
 MARGINALIZATIONS THAT PEOPLE ARE 

00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:09.000
SUBJECT TO.

00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:12.000

00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:14.000
DISABILITY JUSTICE RIGHT MOVEMENT, 

00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:18.000
UNDERSTANDS THE INSTITUTIONS ARE NOT 

00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:21.000
PROVIDING SAFETY FOR US.

00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:24.000
 PRISON, POLICE, COMMUNITY, IT IS US

00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:27.000
 THE COMMUNITY. WHAT

00:09:27.000 --> 00:09:31.000
 SOLIDARITY REQUIRES IS COOPERATION.

00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:34.000
 BELOW THAT EVERYBODY DESERVES A

00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:38.000
 DIGNITY OF RISK. I WILL SHOUT OUT MIKE

00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:41.000
 BIERS,

00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:44.000
 THIS IS THE CONCEPT THAT I

00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:48.000
 HEARD FIRST. AND HOW WE ARE

00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:51.000
 ACCESSING. THINKING ABOUT ITS A 

00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:55.000
PRACTICE, SOMETHING THAT IS CONTINUOUS, 

00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:58.000
THATS HAS THE ABILITY TO SHAPE THE 

00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:01.000
CULTURE AND ROOTED IN A VALUE. OUR

00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:05.000
 VALUE IS, AB LIBERATION

00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:07.000
 BROADLY. TO AN ABOLISH THE

00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:11.000
 SYSTEMS, THE INSTITUTIONS THAT CREATE, 

00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:14.000
AND EXTEND HARM, WHILE

00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:16.000
 BUILDING WHAT WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO 

00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:16.000
RELATE TO EACH OTHER IN A DIFFERENT 

00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:19.000
WAY.   

00:10:19.000 --> 00:10:21.000
THAT CAN HOLD US ALL.   

00:10:21.000 --> 00:10:23.000
AS WE TALK ABOUT WHAT DISABILITY 

00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:27.000
JUSTICE IS, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE 

00:10:27.000 --> 00:10:29.000
ZOOM OUT AND THINK ABOUT HOW WE 

00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:32.000
UNDERSTAND THE DISABILITY IN A WAY THAT 

00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:35.000
IS NOT GIVEN TO US THROUGH LEGISLATION. 

00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:38.000
RIGHT?  IN THE WAY THAT IS NOT DEFINED 

00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:41.000
BY THE SAME STATE THAT IS ACTUALLY

00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:45.000
 PRODUCING HARM AND HAS A MONOPOLY ON

00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:47.000
 VIOLENCE. ON THE SCREEN THERE IS AN 

00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:52.000
ILLUSTRATION NOTICE BACKGROUND. THAT IS 

00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:56.000
JACOBS LAWRENCE PAINTING, HE PAINT THIS

00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:59.000
 IN THE 1960 IN A PSYCH INSTITUTION.

00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:02.000
 THIS IS BLACK FOLKS WAITING TO BE SEEN 

00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:06.000
BY A DOCTOR. TRANSPOSE TO THE IMAGE ARE

00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:09.000
 TWO YOUNG BLACK MEN, ARTISTS, AND THE

00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:12.000
 BOTTOM LEFT IS THE BOOSIE,

00:11:12.000 --> 00:11:15.000
 AND THE RIGHT IS

00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:18.000
 TUPAC. AND DISABILITY IS FLUID.   

00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:21.000
THINKING HOW WE RESPOND TO DISABILITY, 

00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:25.000
WHETHER IT IS LIKE, IN A VISCERAL, OR

00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:29.000
 SOCIAL WAY OR THROUGH ACCOMMODATIONS.

00:11:29.000 --> 00:11:30.000
 VIEW IS STAGNANT OF FRAMEWORK OF 

00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:33.000
ACCESSIBILITY. RIGHT?  IT IS LIKE, THIS 

00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:35.000
IS THE DISABILITIES THAT I HAVE, THESE 

00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:38.000
ARE THE BARRIERS THAT EXIST AND THIS IS 

00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:40.000
THE ACCOMMODATIONS TO MEET THAT.  

00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:43.000
THAT IS INDIVIDUAL APPROACH TO IT.   

00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:47.000
WE KNOW IT IS NOT SUCCESSFUL AND IT IS 

00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:51.000
NOT POSSIBLE, RIGHT?  TO HAVE LIKE A

00:11:51.000 --> 00:11:53.000
 FULLER LEVEL OF ACCESSIBLE WHEN WE ARE

00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:55.000
 OPERATING AS INDIVIDUALS. TO 

00:11:55.000 --> 00:11:57.000
UNDERSTAND DISABILITY AS FLUID, 

00:11:57.000 --> 00:12:01.000
SOMETHING THAT WE COME IN AND OUT OF, 

00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:10.000
THAT AT EIGHT AM WHEN THE WEATHER IS

00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:10.000
 40 DEGREES LOOKS DIFFERENT IN THE 75.

00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:14.000

00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:19.000
WHEN YOU ARE IN AN

00:12:19.000 --> 00:12:22.000
 MANIC EPISODE. SOME

00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:26.000
 OF US ACQUIRE DISABILITIES.

00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:29.000
 THEY ARE ASKS ER BAITED BY

00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:33.000
 CONDITIONS AND IT MUST BE

00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:36.000
 /* FLUID AS WELL. I AM THINKING ABOUT

00:12:36.000 --> 00:12:39.000
 ACCESSIBILITY IS SOMETHING THAT IS

00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:41.000
 ONE TIME TYPE OF DEAL.   

00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:44.000
WE HAVE A CHECKLIST FOR THIS CONFERENCE 

00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:48.000
MAYBE THAT WE HAVE AN INTERPRETER.

00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:51.000
 AND INTERPRETING TEAM, WE HAVE 

00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:53.000
CAPTIONS. WE HAVE BREAKS. AND ALL OF 

00:12:53.000 --> 00:12:55.000
THESE THINGS WE NEED AND SHOULD HAVE, 

00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:58.000
BUT THEN THERE IS ALL THE SHIT THAT 

00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:02.000
HAPPENS IN BETWEEN TIME. 

00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:05.000
SO, PEOPLE ARE ON THE SCREEN

00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:09.000
 BECAUSE THERE ARE PEOPLE TALK ABOUT 

00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:12.000
DISABILITY IN THE ART. THEY TALK ABOUT

00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:15.000
 DISABILITY, VERY COMPLEX 

00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:19.000
WAYS. THINKING ABOUT LITTLE BOOSIE,

00:13:19.000 --> 00:13:22.000
 RAPPER FROM LOUISIANA, A PLACE

00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:26.000
 THAT WE CALL CANCER ALLEY BECAUSE OF 

00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:29.000
MILITARY WASTE, CORPORATION WASTE. HE

00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:33.000
 WENT TO ANGOLA WHICH IS NAMED AFTER

00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:36.000
 A COLONY IN AFRICA. STARTED AS

00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:40.000
 A SLAVE TRADING SITE AND

00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:43.000
 SITE FOR CONVICT LEASING. AND WAS

00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:46.000
 A PLANTATION. AND NOW IT IS A

00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:49.000
 STATE PEN

00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:57.000
 TENT

00:13:57.000 --> 00:13:59.000
 PENETENTIARY. IT IS A

00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:02.000
 PLACE WITH A WATER TOWER.   

00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:05.000
IT IS A COMPOUND OF MINI PRISONS, THE

00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:08.000
 FOOD IS TOXIC BECAUSE IT IS HARVESTED 

00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:10.000
FROM THE LAND, THE WATER IS TOXIC 

00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:13.000
BECAUSE IT IS HARVESTED FROM THERE.   

00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:16.000
PEOPLE DEVELOP DISABILITIES HIGHER RATE 

00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:20.000
THAN THEY WOULD ON THE OUTSIDE. WE SEE 

00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:22.000
SOMEBODY WITH DIABETES GOING ON AND 

00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:26.000
COMES OUT WITH CANCER, AND MAKE SONGS 

00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:28.000
CALLED FUCK CANCER AND IT IS NOT VIEWED

00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:30.000
 SOMETHING THAT IS CONTENDING WITH 

00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:33.000
DISABILITY. I WOULD MAKE AN ARGUMENT, 

00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:34.000
ONE HE IS SOMEBODY THAT IS LABELLED A 

00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:36.000
FELON, SOMEBODY THAT IS BLACK.   

00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:39.000
ESPECIALLY HAS AN APPEARANCE THAT 

00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:42.000
DOESN'T ALIGN WHAT WE VIEW TO BE 

00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:47.000
DISABILITY OR SOMEBODY THAT IS 

00:14:47.000 --> 00:14:48.000
DISABLED.   

00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:51.000
BOOSIE IS IMPORTANT, IT IS NOT ABOUT 

00:14:51.000 --> 00:14:53.000
HIM, BUT THE TRAJECTORY HOW YOU COME IS 

00:14:53.000 --> 00:14:57.000
IMPORTANT, WE THINK ABOUT WHAT IT LOOKS 

00:14:57.000 --> 00:14:59.000
LIKE ON RESERVATIONS WHEN THERE IS 

00:14:59.000 --> 00:15:02.000
LIMITED ACCESS TO CLEAN WATER.   

00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:02.000
LIMITED ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY.

00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:06.000

00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:09.000
LIMITED ACCESS TO FOOD. OR IF WE

00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:13.000
 THINK ABOUT PLACES LIKE

00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:15.000
 GARY, INDIANA OR 

00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:17.000
FLINT.  

00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:20.000
>> COUNSEL:   

00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:22.000
PLACES WHERE THERE IS LEAD 

00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:24.000
CONTAMINATION, TOXIC IN THE EARTH OR 

00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:29.000
AIR. AND HOW WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT 

00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:32.000
SOMETIMES 75 PERCENT OF THE YOUTH HAS 

00:15:32.000 --> 00:15:34.000
CHILDHOOD ASTHMA.

00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:37.000

00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:42.000
OR OTHER CONDITIONS. WE

00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:45.000
 WOULDN'T CHARACTERIZED THESE FOLKS AS

00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:47.000
 DISABLED. 25 PERCENT OF THE PEOPLE ARE 

00:15:47.000 --> 00:15:51.000
DISABLED AND THIS IS CONGRUENT WITH 

00:15:51.000 --> 00:15:55.000
BOULDER, COLORADO, CONNECTICUT, WHERE

00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:58.000
 PLACES PEOPLE ARE WEALTHY

00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:02.000
 WHERE THEY ARE NOT CLOSE TO FRACKING 

00:16:02.000 --> 00:16:05.000
OF MINES. UP THE TOP 

00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:08.000
RIGHT, TUPAC, HE HAS A

00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:12.000
 SONG CALLED CHANGES. I AM

00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:14.000
 TIRED OF POOR AND WORSE I AM BLACK. MY 

00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:18.000
STOMACH HURTS SO I AM LOOKING FOR A 

00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:21.000
PURSE TO SNATCH. I VIEW THIS AS A

00:16:21.000 --> 00:16:26.000
 NUANCE UNDERSTANDING, IT IS SUICIDAL

00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:29.000
 IDEATION IS BY BLACK RACISM AND 

00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:33.000
POVERTY PRODUCED BY CAPITALISM.

00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:36.000
 IN HIS ACTIONS ARE A

00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:40.000
 RESPONSE TO THAT. IN THINKING ABOUT 

00:16:40.000 --> 00:16:43.000
THE FORMATION OF DISABILITY, ONE OF THE 

00:16:43.000 --> 00:16:45.000
THINGS THAT I SHOULD MENTION IS THAT I

00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:49.000
 THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND 

00:16:49.000 --> 00:16:51.000
HOW IT SHAPES BY OUR SURROUNDINGS BY

00:16:51.000 --> 00:16:54.000
 OTHER SYSTEMS.   

00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:56.000
SO, IN BOOSIE'S CASE, IT IS

00:16:56.000 --> 00:17:00.000
 SHAPED BY THE POLICING AND THE 

00:17:00.000 --> 00:17:03.000
INCARCERATION OF PEOPLE. IT IS SHAPED 

00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:06.000
BY THE EXTENSION OF THE MILITARY, AND 

00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:10.000
CORPORATIONS AND HOW THEY ARE ABLE TO

00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:13.000
 EXPLOIT PEOPLE AND LAND IN THE U.S.   

00:17:13.000 --> 00:17:16.000
BLACK SOUTH.   

00:17:16.000 --> 00:17:19.000
I WANT, LIKE ZOOM LITTLE BIT FURTHER 

00:17:19.000 --> 00:17:21.000
OUT TO THINK ABOUT THIS IN A GLOBAL 

00:17:21.000 --> 00:17:25.000
WAY, DISABILITY JUSTICE IS THING IS 

00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:28.000
ATTEMPTING TO DO THAT IN THE WAY I

00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:28.000
 DON'T BELIEVE DISABILITY RIGHTS CAN.

00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:31.000

00:17:31.000 --> 00:17:38.000
TO UNDERSTAND IMPERIALISM AND

00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:41.000
 COLONIALISM SHAPED HOW ABLEISM IS

00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:44.000
 PRACTICES. TO GET FREE HERE, PEOPLE 

00:17:44.000 --> 00:17:47.000
ACROSS THE BORDERS HAVE TO GET FREE.

00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:49.000
 IN THE PLACE LIKE 

00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:53.000
PALETINE, THAT IS UNDER OCCUPATION 

00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:56.000
SINCE THE 40S, WHERE THROUGH

00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:59.000
 REPORTS OF UN, DISABILITIED PEOPLE,

00:17:59.000 --> 00:18:02.000
 CHILDREN ARE TARGETED BY 

00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:06.000
ISRAEL. THEY EXPERIENCE TRAUMA

00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:07.000
 AND VIOLENCE AT HIGH 

00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:10.000
RATES.   

00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:14.000
BUT THE STATISTICS ON WHO IS DISABLED, 

00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:16.000
IT IS LESS

00:18:16.000 --> 00:18:18.000
 TEN PERCENT. UNDERSTANDING THIS 

00:18:18.000 --> 00:18:22.000
DISABILITY IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THAN 

00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:22.000
HOW WE DO SO IN THE WESTERN WORLD.

00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:25.000

00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:28.000
THE WESTERN WORLD AND IN THE U.S., WE 

00:18:28.000 --> 00:18:31.000
HAVE PLACES LIKE 

00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:34.000
COMPTON, 85 PERCENT OF THE KIDS HAVE 

00:18:34.000 --> 00:18:37.000
COMPLEX POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER. 

00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:40.000
AND THEY ARE UNDER SIMILAR CONDITIONS,

00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:43.000
 POLICING, SIMILAR CONDITIONS WHEN IT 

00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:47.000
COMES TO ACCESS TO WATER

00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:52.000
 LIKE PALESTINE.

00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:55.000
 85 PERCENT AND LESS THAN

00:18:55.000 --> 00:18:58.000
 20 PERCENT IN PALESTINE DO. I DON'T 

00:18:58.000 --> 00:19:01.000
HAVE SOLUTIONS AND ANSWERS BUT THIS IS 

00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:03.000
THE TIME DISABILITY JUSTICE IS

00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:06.000
 CHALLENGING US THAT ANIMATES THE WORK 

00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:08.000
THAT WE DO. 

00:19:08.000 --> 00:19:11.000

00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:13.000
SO, IN RESPONSE TO THIS DISABILITY,

00:19:13.000 --> 00:19:17.000
 ONE, HOW DO WE INTEGRATE AND 

00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:20.000
UNDERSTAND INTO OTHER MOVEMENT 

00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:24.000
SPACES. WE SEE EXAMPLES OF

00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:27.000
 SOLIDARITY AND

00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:31.000
 BLACK PANTHER SHOW UP

00:19:31.000 --> 00:19:34.000
 FOR 504 PROTEST, SUPPORTING WITH FOOD 

00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:37.000
DISTRIBUTION. WE SEE EXAMPLES OF THAT 

00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:40.000
TYPE OF SOLIDARITY. BUT WE ARE LOOKING 

00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:43.000
FOR, MORE SO, PEOPLE ARE

00:19:43.000 --> 00:19:45.000
 WORKING ON ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES, HOW 

00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:49.000
DO THEY UNDERSTAND THE DISABILITY, THAT 

00:19:49.000 --> 00:19:50.000
IS SIGNIFICANCE THAT WE HAVE TO DEVELOP 

00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:54.000
LANGUAGE AND THEY HAVE TO DEVELOP 

00:19:54.000 --> 00:19:56.000
PROCESS HOW TO HOLD DISABLED

00:19:56.000 --> 00:19:58.000
 PEOPLE IN THE ORGANIZATIONS AND IN THE 

00:19:58.000 --> 00:20:01.000
ORGANIZING METHODS.   

00:20:01.000 --> 00:20:05.000
AND HOW WE DO THAT, I BELIEVE IS

00:20:05.000 --> 00:20:05.000
 COALESCED AROUND A VALUE SAID.

00:20:05.000 --> 00:20:07.000

00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:10.000
EARLIER I SAID ACCESS IS A PRACTICE, IT 

00:20:10.000 --> 00:20:13.000
IS A CULTURE AND IT MUST BE ROOTED IN A

00:20:13.000 --> 00:20:17.000
 VALUE. I WILL READ FROM THE

00:20:17.000 --> 00:20:21.000
 WORDS OF RUTH GILMORE.

00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:23.000
 EXPLAINS WHAT SHE MEANS BY

00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:26.000
 ABOLITION.   

00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:29.000
WHICH IS THE PURPOSE OF ABOLITION

00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:31.000
 IS TO EXPOSE AND DEFEAT ALL OF THE

00:20:31.000 --> 00:20:35.000
 RELATIONSHIPS AND POLICIES THAT MAKE 

00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:38.000
THE UNITED STATES THE WORLD'S TOP COP.

00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:43.000
 WAR 

00:20:43.000 --> 00:20:44.000
MONGER, IT IS A MOVEMENT TO END 

00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:47.000
SYSTEMIC VIOLENCE AND THE 

00:20:47.000 --> 00:20:49.000
VULNERABILITY, AND DISPLACEMENT THAT 

00:20:49.000 --> 00:20:52.000
KEEP THE SYSTEM GOING. IN OTHER WORDS, 

00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:55.000
THE GOAL IS TO CHANGE HOW WE INTERACT 

00:20:55.000 --> 00:21:00.000
WITH EACH OTHER AND THE

00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:03.000
 PLANET PUTTING PEOPLE BEFORE

00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:06.000
 PROTESTS AND BEFORE WALL FARE,

00:21:06.000 --> 00:21:07.000
 AND LIFE OVER DEATH.

00:21:07.000 --> 00:21:10.000

00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:12.000
I AM SHARING THE QUOTE ALONG WITH AN 

00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:14.000
IMAGE OF THE TREE.   

00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:17.000
ABOVE GROUND AND YOU CAN SEE THE ROOTS 

00:21:17.000 --> 00:21:23.000
BELOW THE GROUND.

00:21:23.000 --> 00:21:25.000
 IN THIS, WHAT I LIFT IS THE

00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:28.000
 GOAL TO CHANGE HOW WE INTERACT WITH 

00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:31.000
EACH OTHER AND THE PLANET.

00:21:31.000 --> 00:21:32.000
 AND HOW WE DO THIS IS THROUGH 

00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:34.000
ACCESS.   

00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:37.000
AGAIN, I WILL REITERATE, NOTHING 

00:21:37.000 --> 00:21:39.000
THINKING ABOUT DISABILITY AS AN END 

00:21:39.000 --> 00:21:42.000
GOAL, A DESTINATION TO ARRIVE AT. BUT 

00:21:42.000 --> 00:21:45.000
THINKING AS A TOOL FOR SOMETHING 

00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:49.000
LARGER.   

00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:52.000
I WILL PERSONALLY SAY AS A CHALLENGE 

00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:54.000
COMING IN IN INDEPENDENT LIVING AND 

00:21:54.000 --> 00:21:58.000
DISABILITY RIGHTS MOVEMENT MYSELF, 

00:21:58.000 --> 00:22:01.000
LIMITATION HAS BEEN A LACK OF A VISION.

00:22:01.000 --> 00:22:05.000
 A VISION OF WHAT WE ARE DOING BEYOND

00:22:05.000 --> 00:22:09.000
 ATTEMPTING TO GET ACCESS INTO

00:22:09.000 --> 00:22:11.000
 SPACES. RIGHT?  SO

00:22:11.000 --> 00:22:14.000
 I WOULD SAY DISABILITY RIGHTS AND 

00:22:14.000 --> 00:22:18.000
CIVIL RIGHTS LEGISLATION IS ASKING US 

00:22:18.000 --> 00:22:21.000
OR ATTEMPTING TO GET ACCESS INTO SPACES

00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:25.000
 EVEN THOUGH IT MIGHT BE HARMFUL

00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:29.000
 OH TO OTHERS OR US. FOR EXAMPLE THE 

00:22:29.000 --> 00:22:32.000
MILITARY. 800 BASES ACROSS THE WORLD. 

00:22:32.000 --> 00:22:35.000
HAS BEEN USED TO EXPLOIT THE

00:22:35.000 --> 00:22:38.000
 GLOBAL SOUTH, DESTROY GOVERNMENTS, 

00:22:38.000 --> 00:22:41.000
CREATE CRISIS. AND OUR

00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:43.000
 GOAL IS NOT TO MAKE IT MORE 

00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:47.000
ACCESSIBLE. MORE DISABLED PEOPLE CAN 

00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:50.000
JOIN THAT AND BE PART OF THAT.

00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:53.000
 OUR GOAL IS HOW WE HAVE MORE

00:22:53.000 --> 00:22:56.000
 DISABLED PEOPLE RESISTING THAT, IN A 

00:22:56.000 --> 00:22:59.000
PART OF MOVEMENT AGAINST THAT.   

00:22:59.000 --> 00:23:01.000
SO THAT VALUE SAID IS REALLY IMPORTANT 

00:23:01.000 --> 00:23:05.000
SO WE ARE NOT ASKING PEOPLE TO BE 

00:23:05.000 --> 00:23:08.000
INCLUDED IN RACE

00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:12.000
ST, SEXIST TYPE OF

00:23:12.000 --> 00:23:15.000
 INSTITUTIONS BUT HOW WE USE ACCESS

00:23:15.000 --> 00:23:19.000
 TO BUILD OUR OWN SHIT. AND

00:23:19.000 --> 00:23:22.000
 AS AN ORGANIZER, WHAT I WILL

00:23:22.000 --> 00:23:25.000
 SAY IS THE THING THAT WE HAVE TO

00:23:25.000 --> 00:23:29.000
 CONTEND WITH IS UNDERSTANDING THAT 

00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:32.000
ACCESS UNDER CAPITALISM IS

00:23:32.000 --> 00:23:35.000
 ALWAYS GOING TO COME WITH LIMITATIONS. 

00:23:35.000 --> 00:23:38.000
AND I WILL GIVE UGH FEW EXAMPLES. BUT

00:23:38.000 --> 00:23:41.000
 ON THE SCREEN HERE IS I AM GOING TO 

00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:43.000
CHECK FOR TIME, CHEYENNA LET ME KNOW

00:23:43.000 --> 00:23:44.000
 IF I AM GOOD.   

00:23:44.000 --> 00:23:45.000
>> CHEYENNA LAYNE WEBER:  YOU ARE IN 

00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:48.000
GOOD SHAPE.   

00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:50.000
>> DUSTIN GIBSON:  OKAY THANK YOU. THIS 

00:23:50.000 --> 00:23:53.000
IS DUSTIN AGAIN, ON THE SCREEN THERE IS 

00:23:53.000 --> 00:23:56.000
AN IMAGE OF A BUILDING THAT

00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:57.000
 BASICALLY HAS LIKE HALF THE STRUCTURE

00:23:57.000 --> 00:24:01.000
 CUTOFF.   

00:24:01.000 --> 00:24:05.000
YOU CAN SEE INSIDE LIKE

00:24:05.000 --> 00:24:08.000
 A BARBIE DOLL HOUSE, AND ON THE TOP IS 

00:24:08.000 --> 00:24:11.000
A DOLLAR SIGN AND THERE IS LEVELS

00:24:11.000 --> 00:24:15.000
 OF SOCIETY. OFFICE BUILDINGS AND BANK

00:24:15.000 --> 00:24:17.000
 ON THE TOP. WHEN YOU GET TO THE

00:24:17.000 --> 00:24:21.000
 BOTTOM, YOU HAVE THE POLICING AND THE 

00:24:21.000 --> 00:24:23.000
INCARCERATION OF PEOPLE. AND BELOW THAT

00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:26.000
 THERE ARE A RANGE OF ILLUSTRATIONS 

00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:28.000
THAT REPRESENT DIFFERENT PEOPLE WITH 

00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:31.000
DIFFERENT FORMS OF DISABILITY WITH THE 

00:24:31.000 --> 00:24:34.000
TEXT THAT READS ACCESS UNDER 

00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:35.000
CAPITALISM.   

00:24:35.000 --> 00:24:40.000
WE KNOW WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE.   

00:24:40.000 --> 00:24:43.000
RIGHT?  TO SAY WE HAVE AN ORGANIZING 

00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:46.000
MEETING, AND WE NEED AN

00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:50.000
 INTERPRETING TEAM. WE MIGHT NEED

00:24:50.000 --> 00:24:53.000
 CART, WE NEED TRANSPORTATION FOR 

00:24:53.000 --> 00:24:56.000
FOLKS, WE NEED FOOD. AND WE

00:24:56.000 --> 00:24:59.000
 NEED THOSE MEETINGS TO HAPPEN ONCE A

00:24:59.000 --> 00:25:02.000
 WEEK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS, TO GET 

00:25:02.000 --> 00:25:02.000
TO THE END OF THE CAMPAIGN. 

00:25:02.000 --> 00:25:06.000

00:25:06.000 --> 00:25:10.000
AND WE KNOW WHAT THAT COST IS, RIGHT? 

00:25:10.000 --> 00:25:12.000
 $500. COULD BE 300. JUST THE 

00:25:12.000 --> 00:25:15.000
INTERPRETING TEAM HERE IN THE 

00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:19.000
CAPTIONING, I AM ASSUMING IT OVER $300 

00:25:19.000 --> 00:25:21.000
FOR THIS ONE

00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:25.000
 HOUR, RIGHT?  IT IS TO UNDERSTAND THAT 

00:25:25.000 --> 00:25:27.000
AS A PROBLEM. TO KNOW THAT IS NOT

00:25:27.000 --> 00:25:31.000
 SUSTAINABLE. WE HAVE TO FORM A 

00:25:31.000 --> 00:25:34.000
DIFFERENT ECONOMY HOW WE DO ACCESS AND 

00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:37.000
THAT IT HAS EXISTED 

00:25:37.000 --> 00:25:41.000
BEFORE. THAT INSTEAD OF

00:25:41.000 --> 00:25:44.000
 JUST, I MEAN GIVING TO INTERPRETING

00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:47.000
 AGENCIES THAT IN TURN EXPLOIT 

00:25:47.000 --> 00:25:51.000
PEOPLE, AND PRACTICE CAPITALISM THAT WE 

00:25:51.000 --> 00:25:53.000
FIND DIFFERENT WAYS TO BUILD UP FROM 

00:25:53.000 --> 00:25:56.000
COMMUNITY AND ORGANIZE THEMSELVES IN 

00:25:56.000 --> 00:25:57.000
THE WAY THAT THERE IS SHARED 

00:25:57.000 --> 00:26:00.000
OWNERSHIP.   

00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:04.000
A PART OF WHAT THEY DO WITH THE SURPLUS 

00:26:04.000 --> 00:26:08.000
IS PROVIDING BACK TO MOVEMENTS.

00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:11.000
 TO CREATE SOMETHING THAT IS MORE

00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:15.000
 SUSTAINABLE.   

00:26:15.000 --> 00:26:20.000
AND THE LAST THING I WANT TO SHARE IS 

00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:22.000
THE ABLEISM THAT WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO 

00:26:22.000 --> 00:26:24.000
REWORK AND BUILD OVER TIME. WE KNOW 

00:26:24.000 --> 00:26:26.000
THAT ABLEISM IS NOT JUST THE 

00:26:26.000 --> 00:26:28.000
DISCRIMINATION OF PEOPLE WITH 

00:26:28.000 --> 00:26:31.000
DISABILITIES. WE KNOW IT IS NOT JUST 

00:26:31.000 --> 00:26:31.000
OPPRESSION OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES. 

00:26:31.000 --> 00:26:32.000

00:26:32.000 --> 00:26:36.000
WHAT WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO DO WITH THIS 

00:26:36.000 --> 00:26:39.000
IS NOT GIVE THIS DEFINITION

00:26:39.000 --> 00:26:42.000
 A SUCCINCT AND EASY TO DIGEST

00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:45.000
 I GUESS. BUT THINK ABOUT THE DIFFERENT 

00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:48.000
COMPONENTS THAT FEED INTO ABLEISM SO WE 

00:26:48.000 --> 00:26:51.000
ARE ABLE TO FIND INTERVENTIONS AND

00:26:51.000 --> 00:26:53.000
 PLACES WHERE WE CAN BUILD SOLIDARITY 

00:26:53.000 --> 00:26:55.000
WITH OTHER PEOPLE THAT ARE CONCERNED 

00:26:55.000 --> 00:26:58.000
WITH LIBERATION.   

00:26:58.000 --> 00:27:01.000
AND TO SEE HOW ABLEISM IS

00:27:01.000 --> 00:27:04.000
 IMPACTING THEM. READING FROM THE TOP, 

00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:07.000
IT IS A SYSTEM THAT PLACES VALUE ON 

00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:09.000
PEOPLE'S BODIES AND MINDS BASED ON 

00:27:09.000 --> 00:27:13.000
CONSTRUCTED IDEA OF NORMALCY, 

00:27:13.000 --> 00:27:16.000
INTELLIGENCE, EXCELLENCE, PRODUCTIVITY.

00:27:16.000 --> 00:27:19.000
 THESE CONSTRUCTED IDEAS ARE DEEPLY 

00:27:19.000 --> 00:27:22.000
ROOTED IN ANTI-BLACKNESS,

00:27:22.000 --> 00:27:25.000
 USING EUGENICS,

00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:28.000
 MISOGYNY,

00:27:28.000 --> 00:27:33.000
 COLONIALISM, IMPERIALISM AND

00:27:33.000 --> 00:27:36.000
 CAPITALISM. THE FORM OF SYSTEMIC 

00:27:36.000 --> 00:27:39.000
OPPRESSION LEADS TO PEOPLE AND SOCIETY 

00:27:39.000 --> 00:27:43.000
DETERMINING WHO IS VALUABLE, AND

00:27:43.000 --> 00:27:47.000
 WORTHY, ON A LANGUAGE, APPEARANCE, AND

00:27:47.000 --> 00:27:49.000
 THEIR TO PRODUCE,

00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:52.000
 REPRODUCE, EXCEL AND BEHAVE. AND 

00:27:52.000 --> 00:27:56.000
LASTLY, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE

00:27:56.000 --> 00:28:00.000
 DISABLED TO EXPERIENCE 

00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:04.000
ABLEISM.

00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:09.000
 WE FIND THIS AS AN IMPORTANT FOOL

00:28:09.000 --> 00:28:12.000
 /* TOOL FOR US TO ORGANIZE OUTSIDE

00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:14.000
 OF DISABILITY SPACES BECAUSE ONE WE 

00:28:14.000 --> 00:28:16.000
KNOW THERE IS DISABLED PEOPLE THAT 

00:28:16.000 --> 00:28:19.000
EXIST IN OTHER SPACES AND THEY ARE NOT 

00:28:19.000 --> 00:28:22.000
COUNTED. OR THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND 

00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:25.000
THEMSELVES AS DISABLED.  AND THE GOAL

00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:29.000
 IS NOT TO GET PEOPLE TO LABEL 

00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:29.000
THEMSELVES OR SELF-IDENTIFY. 

00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:33.000

00:28:33.000 --> 00:28:35.000
THE GOAL IS TO UNDERSTAND

00:28:35.000 --> 00:28:37.000
 DISABLED POPULATION AS A POLITICAL 

00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:41.000
CLASS. THERE IS A FUNCTION AND THERE IS 

00:28:41.000 --> 00:28:45.000
A REASON IN WHICH

00:28:45.000 --> 00:28:48.000
 IDENTITIES ARE POLITICALIZED IN THIS

00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:52.000
 WAY. WE FIND IT USEFUL TO THINK ABOUT,

00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:58.000
 INSTEAD OF PUSHING FOR

00:28:58.000 --> 00:28:59.000
 MEDICARE FOR ALL BUT PUSH FOR

00:28:59.000 --> 00:29:03.000
 MEDICAID.   

00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:06.000
DECIDE OF NOT DECIDING WHO LIVES AND 

00:29:06.000 --> 00:29:09.000
DIES BASED ON WHAT TYPE OF CEILING WE 

00:29:09.000 --> 00:29:13.000
GET. I DON'T VIEW THIS, IN DISABILITY

00:29:13.000 --> 00:29:16.000
 SPECIFIC SPACES. PART OF

00:29:16.000 --> 00:29:19.000
 DISABILITY JUSTICE AND THE WORK

00:29:19.000 --> 00:29:21.000
 COALESCING AROUND THE VALUE SETS, 

00:29:21.000 --> 00:29:23.000
WHETHER IT IS ABOLITION OR 

00:29:23.000 --> 00:29:27.000
UNDERSTANDING WE WANT FREE HOUSING, 

00:29:27.000 --> 00:29:30.000
FREE ACCESSIBLE HOUSING FOR ALL.

00:29:30.000 --> 00:29:34.000
 WE WANT THE END OF POLICING, WE WANT 

00:29:34.000 --> 00:29:36.000
TO BUILD COOPERATIVELY

00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:40.000
 OWNED STRUCTURES WHERE PEOPLE HAVE THE 

00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:43.000
ABILITY TO BE 

00:29:43.000 --> 00:29:45.000
SELF-DETERMINING. TO COALESCE

00:29:45.000 --> 00:29:48.000
 AROUND THESE, AND FOLKS CAN UNDERSTAND 

00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:51.000
HOW ABLEISM IS ALSO IMPACTING THEM 

00:29:51.000 --> 00:29:52.000
THROUGH THE PRACTICE OF DOING THESE. 

00:29:52.000 --> 00:29:56.000

00:29:56.000 --> 00:29:58.000
I AM GOING TO PAUSE NOW. AT THE END

00:29:58.000 --> 00:30:01.000
 OF OUR SESSION, WE WILL HAVE SPACE FOR 

00:30:01.000 --> 00:30:05.000
Q & A. I WELCOME

00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:09.000
 FOLKS TO DROP QUESTIONS AS WE ARE BOTH

00:30:09.000 --> 00:30:16.000
 PRESENTING. AND

00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:21.000
 I HOPE, SELINA

00:30:21.000 --> 00:30:25.000
 COMES UP WITH SOLIDARITY 

00:30:25.000 --> 00:30:25.000
ECONOMY IN 20

00:30:25.000 --> 00:30:28.000
 MINUTES.   

00:30:28.000 --> 00:30:30.000
>> CHEYENNA LAYNE WEBER:  THANKS DUSTIN 

00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:34.000
FOR LAYING IT OUT. EVERY TIME I HEAR 

00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:38.000
YOU SPEAK, I ALWAYS LEARN SOMETHING. I 

00:30:38.000 --> 00:30:41.000
AM GRATEFUL I AM HERE TODAY.

00:30:41.000 --> 00:30:41.000
 SOLIDARITY ECONOMY, IS A PRETTY BIG 

00:30:41.000 --> 00:30:45.000
TOPIC.   

00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:48.000
BUT I WILL DO MY BEST. AND AS DUSTIN

00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:51.000
 SAID, SHOOT US YOUR 

00:30:51.000 --> 00:30:54.000
QUESTIONS, I WILL LEAVE TIME FOR THAT.  

00:30:54.000 --> 00:30:54.000
NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. 

00:30:54.000 --> 00:30:57.000

00:30:57.000 --> 00:31:01.000
I WANT TO START WITH A BASIC PREMISES 

00:31:01.000 --> 00:31:05.000
WHICH IS QUOTE/UNQUOTE ECONOMIC 

00:31:05.000 --> 00:31:09.000
DEVELOPMENT MUST LIFT UP ALL BEINGS.

00:31:09.000 --> 00:31:11.000
 ALL BEINGS. THAT IS NOT JUST

00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:14.000
 HUMANS, YOU KNOW.   

00:31:14.000 --> 00:31:18.000
THAT IS ALSO THE LAND THAT WE ARE ON 

00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:21.000
AND ALL OF OUR NON-HUMAN

00:31:21.000 --> 00:31:25.000
 RELATIVES AND SOMETHING THAT I THINK

00:31:25.000 --> 00:31:29.000
 DUSTIN MADE CLEAR IS THE LINK BETWEEN 

00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:32.000
DISABILITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL 

00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:36.000
DESTRUCTION. AND THAT IS SOMETHING THAT 

00:31:36.000 --> 00:31:37.000
GETS ERASED A LOT IN THE NAME OF

00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:40.000
 THE ECONOMY.   

00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:42.000
WE WILL TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT 

00:31:42.000 --> 00:31:47.000
TODAY. AND I AM SHOWING A SLIDE RIGHT 

00:31:47.000 --> 00:31:50.000
NOW THAT'S GOT A MAP OF THE EAST COAST 

00:31:50.000 --> 00:31:54.000
OF THE UNITED STATES. AND

00:31:54.000 --> 00:31:59.000
 IT'S GOT THE HAIR THAT IS

00:31:59.000 --> 00:32:02.000
 APPALACHIA HIGHLIGHTED AND NEXT TO 

00:32:02.000 --> 00:32:06.000
THAT, THERE IS A PHOTO OF

00:32:06.000 --> 00:32:09.000
 FANNIE LOU, BLACK

00:32:09.000 --> 00:32:12.000
 WOMAN, IN A PRINT DRESS, SPEAKING. 

00:32:12.000 --> 00:32:13.000
UNDER HER, THERE IS A QUOTE, YOU MAY 

00:32:13.000 --> 00:32:18.000
KNOW THE QUOTE.   

00:32:18.000 --> 00:32:21.000
NOBODY IS FREE UNTIL EVERYBODY IS FREE.

00:32:21.000 --> 00:32:23.000
 I ASK FOLKS TO THINK ABOUT THAT, NOT 

00:32:23.000 --> 00:32:27.000
IN TERMS OF A NARROW GROUP OF PEOPLE 

00:32:27.000 --> 00:32:30.000
BUT ALL OF US, HOW WE ARE GETTING FREE 

00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:32.000
TOGETHER. THAT IS WHAT SOLIDARITY

00:32:32.000 --> 00:32:35.000
 ECONOMY IS ABOUT.   

00:32:35.000 --> 00:32:38.000
I WANT TO START WITH THE IDEA OF

00:32:38.000 --> 00:32:41.000
 ECONOMY. YOU HEAR THE TERM ECONOMY AND

00:32:41.000 --> 00:32:45.000
 THINK ABOUT THE GDP OR

00:32:45.000 --> 00:32:48.000
 JOBS GROWTH

00:32:48.000 --> 00:32:52.000
 OR TRAITOR

00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:55.000
 /* INTEREST RATES OR THINGS THAT

00:32:55.000 --> 00:32:58.000
 SEEM FAR AWAY. THAT IS A NARROW

00:32:58.000 --> 00:33:01.000
 VERSION OF THE CONCEPT OF ECONOMY.   

00:33:01.000 --> 00:33:04.000
AND I WANT TO BE CLEAR THAT

00:33:04.000 --> 00:33:07.000
 SOLIDARITY ECONOMY IS NOT ABOUT 

00:33:07.000 --> 00:33:11.000
REPLACING THAT IDEA WITH SOME 

00:33:11.000 --> 00:33:13.000
ALTERNATIVE. YOU CAN'T SWAP THEM OUT,

00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:16.000
 THEY ARE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE, IT IS 

00:33:16.000 --> 00:33:19.000
BREAKING WITH THE IDEA THERE IS A 

00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:23.000
SINGLE ECONOMY THAT WE ARE ALL SOMEHOW

00:33:23.000 --> 00:33:26.000
 STUCK INSIDE AND SUBJECT TO 

00:33:26.000 --> 00:33:27.000
ENTIRELY. THAT IS JUST NOT TRUE.

00:33:27.000 --> 00:33:30.000

00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:33.000
WE ARE LOOKING AT A SLIDE OF AN

00:33:33.000 --> 00:33:37.000
 ICEBERG AND THE TOP PART IS VISIBLE. 

00:33:37.000 --> 00:33:40.000
AND THE BOTTOM OF IT IS INVISIBLE

00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:42.000
 AND BLOCK OUT. YOU CAN KIND OF SEE

00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:46.000
 TEXT BUT NOT MUCH.   

00:33:46.000 --> 00:33:49.000
AND THIS IS A WAY TO TALK ABOUT AND 

00:33:49.000 --> 00:33:52.000
THINK ABOUT WHAT IS OUR

00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:55.000
 IDEA ABOUT ECONOMY, WHAT IS VISIBLE 

00:33:55.000 --> 00:33:59.000
AND IT SAYS AT THE TOP, WAGE LABOR,

00:33:59.000 --> 00:34:02.000
 PRODUCED FOR A MARKET IN A

00:34:02.000 --> 00:34:05.000
 CAPITALIST FIRM, CORPORATIONS OR WORK 

00:34:05.000 --> 00:34:06.000
THAT YOU ARE DOING TO EARN A WAGE, THAT 

00:34:06.000 --> 00:34:09.000
IS VISIBLE.   

00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:13.000
BUT UNDERNEATH THAT, THERE IS ALL THE 

00:34:13.000 --> 00:34:16.000
OTHER STUFF. DUSTIN GOES TO THE

00:34:16.000 --> 00:34:20.000
 NEXT SLIDE. THERE IS, THE

00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:22.000
 BENEATH THE ICEBERG IS REVEALED.  

00:34:22.000 --> 00:34:24.000
THERE IS THE LABOR THAT HAPPENS MAYBE 

00:34:24.000 --> 00:34:27.000
IN SCHOOLS. RIGHT?    

00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:31.000
BETWEEN STUDENTS.  OR ON THE STREET, IN

00:34:31.000 --> 00:34:34.000
 NEIGHBORHOODS, WITHIN FAMILIES, IN 

00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:37.000
CHURCHES OR TEMPLES.  BETWEEN

00:34:37.000 --> 00:34:38.000
 RETIRED PEOPLE OR FRIENDS. PEOPLE GIVE

00:34:38.000 --> 00:34:42.000
 GIFTS.   

00:34:42.000 --> 00:34:44.000
THEY BARTER WITH EACH OTHER.   

00:34:44.000 --> 00:34:47.000
FOLKS TAKE CARE OF CHILDREN.   

00:34:47.000 --> 00:34:51.000
RIGHT?  AND AREN'T NECESSARILY PAID TO 

00:34:51.000 --> 00:34:53.000
DO THAT. THERE IS STUFF THAT IS ON THE

00:34:53.000 --> 00:34:57.000
 ILLEGAL MARK.   

00:34:57.000 --> 00:35:00.000
PEOPLE DO ECONOMIC /*

00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:03.000
 ACTIVITY THAT IS ILLEGAL. THERE IS 

00:35:03.000 --> 00:35:07.000
STUFF NOT GIVEN TO THE MARKET. THERE IS 

00:35:07.000 --> 00:35:10.000
PRODUCER COOPERATIVES, UNDER THE TABLE 

00:35:10.000 --> 00:35:13.000
WORK. ALL THE OTHER WAYS OF 

00:35:13.000 --> 00:35:16.000
PARTICIPATING IN ECONOMIC ACTIVITY,

00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:19.000
 WAYS OF GETTING NEEDS MET THAT ARE

00:35:19.000 --> 00:35:22.000
 INVISIBLE. YOU HAVE TO THINK OF THE 

00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:24.000
OTHER WAYS BECAUSE SOLIDARITY ECONOMY 

00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:28.000
IS NOT ABOUT THE WAGES. IT IS NOT JUST 

00:35:28.000 --> 00:35:31.000
ABOUT THE TOP PART OF THE ICEBERG,

00:35:31.000 --> 00:35:31.000
 IT IS ABOUT THE WHOLE THING.

00:35:31.000 --> 00:35:33.000

00:35:33.000 --> 00:35:37.000
SOLIDARITY ECONOMY IS A FRAMEWORK FOR 

00:35:37.000 --> 00:35:40.000
ORGANIZING OURSELVES TO HUMAN AND NON 

00:35:40.000 --> 00:35:42.000
HUMAN NEEDS THROUGH WHAT IS CALLED 

00:35:42.000 --> 00:35:48.000
ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES. THAT CAN INCLUDE 

00:35:48.000 --> 00:35:49.000
THE PRODUCTION OF EXCHANGE OF GOODS AND 

00:35:49.000 --> 00:35:52.000
SERVICES.   

00:35:52.000 --> 00:35:56.000
BUT IT IS ALONG THE VALUES OF SOCIAL 

00:35:56.000 --> 00:36:00.000
AND RACIAL JUSTICE, ECOLOGICAL

00:36:00.000 --> 00:36:03.000
 SUSTAINABILITY,

00:36:03.000 --> 00:36:05.000
 MUCHTY AND DEMOCRACY. DEMOCRACY IS 

00:36:05.000 --> 00:36:09.000
IMPORTANT. THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE 

00:36:09.000 --> 00:36:13.000
BETWEEN SAY A COMPANY THAT 

00:36:13.000 --> 00:36:16.000
IS, YOU KNOW, MAKING SOME KIND OF

00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:19.000
 GREEN PRODUCT. MAYBE A GREEN

00:36:19.000 --> 00:36:22.000
 DETERGENT. VERSUS A SOLIDARITY ECONOMY

00:36:22.000 --> 00:36:25.000
 ORGANIZATION THAT IS MAKE THE SAME

00:36:25.000 --> 00:36:30.000
 DETERGENT BUT OWN BY THE

00:36:30.000 --> 00:36:33.000
 WORKERS. IT IS NOT

00:36:33.000 --> 00:36:36.000
 A TOP DOWN SITUATION LIKE

00:36:36.000 --> 00:36:39.000
 WE ARE IN RIGHT NOW. MOVE TO THE NEXT

00:36:39.000 --> 00:36:43.000
 SLIDE PLEASE. I WANT TO GIVE

00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:47.000
 EXAMPLES ABOUT THIS IN PARTICULAR FROM

00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:50.000
 DISABLED COMMUNITIES. ONE IS THERE IS 

00:36:50.000 --> 00:36:53.000
A JAPANESE TIME BANK

00:36:53.000 --> 00:36:56.000
 FUREAI KIPPU.  

00:36:56.000 --> 00:36:59.000
THERE IS AN IMAGE OF THE SLIDE OF 

00:36:59.000 --> 00:37:04.000
VARIOUS JAPANESE FOLKS WHO ARE

00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:07.000
 EXCHANGING LABOR WITH EACH OTHER. ONE

00:37:07.000 --> 00:37:10.000
 PICTURE, THERE IS TWO PEOPLE HAVE TEA. 

00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:13.000
YOU KNOW. IN ANOTHER, THERE IS SOMEBODY 

00:37:13.000 --> 00:37:17.000
BRINGING IN A YOUNGER PERSON TO MEET 

00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:19.000
WITH AN OLDER

00:37:19.000 --> 00:37:22.000
 PERSON, ANOTHER THERE IS AN IMAGE OF 

00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:24.000
SOMEBODY GETTING GROCERIES.  THE TIME 

00:37:24.000 --> 00:37:28.000
THING WAS DESIGNED BY A FOUNDATION IN 

00:37:28.000 --> 00:37:30.000
JAPAN TO HELP SUPPORT ELDER

00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:33.000
 CARE AND IT IS CALLED THE 

00:37:33.000 --> 00:37:36.000
COMPLEMENTARY CURRENCY, IT IS LIKE A 

00:37:36.000 --> 00:37:39.000
DOLLAR IN THE SENSE THAT, YOU PUT TIME 

00:37:39.000 --> 00:37:42.000
IN AND YOU RECEIVE CREDITS FOR YOUR 

00:37:42.000 --> 00:37:45.000
TIME. AND THEN YOU CAN EXCHANGE

00:37:45.000 --> 00:37:47.000
 CREDITS FOR OTHER SERVICES.   

00:37:47.000 --> 00:37:51.000
PEOPLE DO THINGS LIKE SHOP OR EACH 

00:37:51.000 --> 00:37:53.000
OTHER OR HAVE MEALS OR MAKE

00:37:53.000 --> 00:37:56.000
 MEALS FOR EACH OTHER OR PROVIDE HOME 

00:37:56.000 --> 00:37:57.000
CARE OR PROVIDE CHILD 

00:37:57.000 --> 00:37:59.000
CARE.  

00:37:59.000 --> 00:38:01.000
IT IS DESIGNED BECAUSE THERE IS AN 

00:38:01.000 --> 00:38:04.000
AGING POPULATION AND THEY WERE LOOKING 

00:38:04.000 --> 00:38:06.000
FOR NOVEL WAYS TO HELP MEET THE NEEDS 

00:38:06.000 --> 00:38:10.000
OF THE POPULATION.   

00:38:10.000 --> 00:38:13.000
AND BECAUSE A LOT OF YOUNG PEOPLE MOVED

00:38:13.000 --> 00:38:17.000
 AWAY FOR WORK, THEY ARE NOT NEAR THE

00:38:17.000 --> 00:38:19.000
 GRANDPARENTS OR ELDERS, THE TIME

00:38:19.000 --> 00:38:23.000
 BANK ALLOWED THE YOUNG PEOPLE TO TAKE 

00:38:23.000 --> 00:38:26.000
CARE OF SOMEBODY NEARBY THEM AND THEN

00:38:26.000 --> 00:38:29.000
 THEY CAN EXCHANGE THE CREDITS FOR CARE 

00:38:29.000 --> 00:38:32.000
FOR THEIR OWN FAMILIES AND ELDERS. AND 

00:38:32.000 --> 00:38:36.000
THEY DID A SURVEY OF THE FOLKS USING 

00:38:36.000 --> 00:38:39.000
THE TIME BANK AND FOUND THAT

00:38:39.000 --> 00:38:42.000
 PEOPLE PREFERRED TO USE THE TIME BANK

00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:44.000
 RATHER THAN TO PAY FOR CARE WORK. 

00:38:44.000 --> 00:38:45.000
THERE IS A COMMUNITY AND THE 

00:38:45.000 --> 00:38:48.000
RELATIONSHIP.   

00:38:48.000 --> 00:38:52.000
RIGHT?  IT IS A NOVEL IDEA,

00:38:52.000 --> 00:38:56.000
 THEY'VE TRIED IT IN NEW YORK, IN 

00:38:56.000 --> 00:38:59.000
DIFFERENT WAYS, THERE IS ONE BELIEVE IN

00:38:59.000 --> 00:39:00.000
 CHINA, THAT IS SPECIFICALLY ABOUT THIS 

00:39:00.000 --> 00:39:03.000
HEALTHCARE. THAT IS ABOUT CARE WORK. IT 

00:39:03.000 --> 00:39:06.000
IS SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.   

00:39:06.000 --> 00:39:09.000
ANOTHER EXAMPLE IS CLIMATE DISASTER

00:39:09.000 --> 00:39:12.000
 MUTUAL AID. AS WE 

00:39:12.000 --> 00:39:15.000
KNOW, CLIMATE CHANGE IS ON US, AND IT 

00:39:15.000 --> 00:39:17.000
IS CREATING CHAOS, AND DISABLED PEOPLE 

00:39:17.000 --> 00:39:19.000
ARE OFTEN HARMED FIRST.    

00:39:19.000 --> 00:39:23.000
AND OFTEN, ALSO, BECAUSE DISABLED 

00:39:23.000 --> 00:39:25.000
PEOPLE ARE IN ENVIRONMENTAL SENSITIVE

00:39:25.000 --> 00:39:28.000
 AREAS.   

00:39:28.000 --> 00:39:32.000
DISPROPORTION DISPROPORTIONATELY. THERE 

00:39:32.000 --> 00:39:35.000
IS AN IMAGE OF A BOX

00:39:35.000 --> 00:39:39.000
 FAN LIKE YOU GET FROM WALMART. THERE 

00:39:39.000 --> 00:39:41.000
IS FILTERS DUCT TAPE TO IT, IN A 

00:39:41.000 --> 00:39:44.000
TRIANGLE FASHION. THESE WERE USED 

00:39:44.000 --> 00:39:48.000
DURING THE FIRES OUT IN CALIFORNIA BY

00:39:48.000 --> 00:39:51.000
 DISABLED PEOPLE TO FILTER THE AIR

00:39:51.000 --> 00:39:53.000
 AND THERE IS DISABLED PEOPLE THAT WERE

00:39:53.000 --> 00:39:56.000
 MAKING AND GIVING IT AWAY TO PEOPLE IN 

00:39:56.000 --> 00:39:59.000
THE COMMUNITY WHO NEEDED IT. NEXT SLIDE 

00:39:59.000 --> 00:40:02.000
IS AN IMAGE OF

00:40:02.000 --> 00:40:05.000
 TWO DISABILITIED FOLKS SAY WE NEED 

00:40:05.000 --> 00:40:08.000
POWER TO LIVE AND THERE IS A HASHTAG 

00:40:08.000 --> 00:40:12.000
AND THERE IS

00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:16.000
 TWO FOLKS RELY ON POWER SOURCES.  

00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:19.000
THESE FOLKS WERE PARTICULARLY HARM BY 

00:40:19.000 --> 00:40:21.000
THE POWER FAILURES IN CALIFORNIA THAT 

00:40:21.000 --> 00:40:22.000
HAPPENED, I DON'T KNOW. TWO YEARS OR 

00:40:22.000 --> 00:40:25.000
SO.   

00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:27.000
THERE IS ANOTHER IMAGE BESIDE IT FROM

00:40:27.000 --> 00:40:29.000
 DISABILITY JUSTICE CULTURE CLUB, WHICH 

00:40:29.000 --> 00:40:33.000
IS A GROUP OF DISABILITIED PEOPLE IN 

00:40:33.000 --> 00:40:37.000
THE BAY AREA.  AND IT SAY AS

00:40:37.000 --> 00:40:39.000

POSSIBLE.

 FUNDS AND THE IDEA IS NO ONE IS 

00:41:14.000 --> 00:41:17.000
WAITING FOR THE SOMEBODY TO COME BAIL 

00:41:17.000 --> 00:41:20.000
THEM OUT. THIS IS DISABLED PEOPLE 

00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:23.000
MAKING A DECISION TO TAKE CARE OF EACH 

00:41:23.000 --> 00:41:26.000
OTHER ACROSS THE KINDS OF DISABILITIES 

00:41:26.000 --> 00:41:30.000
THEY FACE LISTENING, FINDING SOLUTIONS 

00:41:30.000 --> 00:41:32.000
AND MOVING IN THE MOMENT IN THE WAY 

00:41:32.000 --> 00:41:34.000
THAT SAVES PEOPLE'S LIVES. THAT IS 

00:41:34.000 --> 00:41:37.000
FAMILIAR TO A LOT OF YOU, BUT THAT IS 

00:41:37.000 --> 00:41:41.000
ANOTHER KIND OF SOLIDARITY ECONOMY

00:41:41.000 --> 00:41:44.000
 ACTIVITY. THE NEXT IS COOPERATIVE HOME 

00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:47.000
CARE ASSOCIATES. THIS IS AN IMAGE OF 

00:41:47.000 --> 00:41:50.000
NUMBER OF WOMEN WHO ARE SITTING IN NAVY 

00:41:50.000 --> 00:41:53.000
BLUE SCRUBS AND THEY ARE SITTING AT A 

00:41:53.000 --> 00:41:56.000
TABLE LOOKING AT A REPORTS AND THEY ARE 

00:41:56.000 --> 00:42:00.000
SMILING AND LAUGHING. AND THESE ARE 

00:42:00.000 --> 00:42:04.000
ACTUAL WOMEN WHO ARE PART 

00:42:04.000 --> 00:42:07.000
CHCA, WHICH IS THE WORKER

00:42:07.000 --> 00:42:10.000
 COOPERATIVE IN THE UNITED STATES. THEY 

00:42:10.000 --> 00:42:13.000
HAVE OVER 2000 WORKER 

00:42:13.000 --> 00:42:16.000
OWNERS. THAT MEANS THE CARE WORKERS OWN

00:42:16.000 --> 00:42:19.000
 THE BUSINESS. THEY OPERATE THE

00:42:19.000 --> 00:42:22.000
 BUSINESS. AND THEY CARE A

00:42:22.000 --> 00:42:23.000
 GREAT DEAL ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE 

00:42:23.000 --> 00:42:25.000
SERVICES AND ABOUT THE PEOPLE THEY ARE 

00:42:25.000 --> 00:42:27.000
IN COMMUNITY WITH.   

00:42:27.000 --> 00:42:29.000
RIGHT?  THEY ARE TAKING CARE OF 

00:42:29.000 --> 00:42:32.000
COMMUNITY MEMBERS. IT IS NOT JUST 

00:42:32.000 --> 00:42:35.000
CLIENTS OR SOME KIND OF,

00:42:35.000 --> 00:42:38.000
 CORPORATE CONTRACT FOR THEM. IT IS 

00:42:38.000 --> 00:42:41.000
DEEPER THAN THAT. AND ONE OF THE THINGS 

00:42:41.000 --> 00:42:45.000
THEY'VE DONE, THEY SET UP A RIGOROUS

00:42:45.000 --> 00:42:48.000
 TRAINING PROGRAM, THEY SET UP

00:42:48.000 --> 00:42:51.000
 A NON-PROFIT TO TRAIN EACH OTHER

00:42:51.000 --> 00:42:54.000
 SO THEY HAVE HIGH QUALITY SERVICES AND 

00:42:54.000 --> 00:42:54.000
THIS MADE THEM A LEADER IN THE FIELD IN 

00:42:54.000 --> 00:42:57.000
NEW YORK.  

00:42:57.000 --> 00:42:59.000
THERE IS CHCA, I BELIEVE IN 

00:42:59.000 --> 00:43:01.000
PENNSYLVANIA AND MAYBE ONE IN 

00:43:01.000 --> 00:43:04.000
MASSACHUSETTS AS WELL. THAT IS ANOTHER 

00:43:04.000 --> 00:43:07.000
FORM OF SOLIDARITY ECONOMY IN THE 

00:43:07.000 --> 00:43:10.000
SPACE.   

00:43:10.000 --> 00:43:13.000
AND NEXT IMAGE, THERE IS A, THIS IS 

00:43:13.000 --> 00:43:16.000
WHAT WE SOMETIMES CALL THE WHEEL. AND

00:43:16.000 --> 00:43:18.000
 EXAMPLE OF ALL THE THINGS THAT CAN 

00:43:18.000 --> 00:43:22.000
FALL, WELL, IT IS NOT ALL OF THEM, IT 

00:43:22.000 --> 00:43:25.000
IS SOME OF THE THINGS THAT

00:43:25.000 --> 00:43:28.000
 SOLIDARITY ECONOMY CAN INCLUDE UNDER

00:43:28.000 --> 00:43:31.000
 PRODUCTION, EXCHANGE AND 

00:43:31.000 --> 00:43:33.000
TRANSFER, CONSUMPTION AND USE, AND 

00:43:33.000 --> 00:43:36.000
SURPLUS ALLOCATION. ALL THE THINGS YOU 

00:43:36.000 --> 00:43:38.000
THINK OF AS ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES WHAT 

00:43:38.000 --> 00:43:41.000
ARE OPTIONS AND I'M NOT GOING TO READ 

00:43:41.000 --> 00:43:44.000
IT ALL, THERE IS THINGS LIKE COMMUNITY 

00:43:44.000 --> 00:43:47.000
GARDENS, FAIR TRADE OR FREE

00:43:47.000 --> 00:43:50.000
 STORES. THERE IS COLLECTIVE HOUSES

00:43:50.000 --> 00:43:53.000
 AND COOP LOAN 

00:43:53.000 --> 00:43:57.000
FUNDS, THERE IS CREDIT UNIONS,

00:43:57.000 --> 00:44:00.000
 COMPOSTING AND COOPERATIVE

00:44:00.000 --> 00:44:03.000
 TANKS, ROTATING AND CREDIT

00:44:03.000 --> 00:44:06.000
 ASSOCIATIONS, ALL WAYS FOR FOLKS TO 

00:44:06.000 --> 00:44:09.000
USE THE VALUES THAT I HAVE BEEN TALKING 

00:44:09.000 --> 00:44:18.000
ABOUT,

00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:21.000
 MUTUALISM TO MEET THE NEEDS.

00:44:21.000 --> 00:44:24.000
 AND THE IDEA IS NOT TO OVERWHELM BUT 

00:44:24.000 --> 00:44:27.000
TO GIVE YOU IDEAS FOR WAYS THAT YOU MAY

00:44:27.000 --> 00:44:30.000
 BEGIN TO APPLY THIS YOURSELF.   

00:44:30.000 --> 00:44:34.000
THE NEXT IMAGE IS THE SAME AS THE

00:44:34.000 --> 00:44:35.000
 ONE BEFORE. BUT THE COOPERATIVES ARE 

00:44:35.000 --> 00:44:37.000
ALL CIRCLED.   

00:44:37.000 --> 00:44:40.000
AND PART OF THIS IS BECAUSE A LOT OF 

00:44:40.000 --> 00:44:44.000
PEOPLE THINK SOLIDARITY ECONOMY JUST 

00:44:44.000 --> 00:44:47.000
MEANS COOPS. BUT IT DOESN'T ACTUALLY.

00:44:47.000 --> 00:44:50.000
 COOPS IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF

00:44:50.000 --> 00:44:52.000
 SOLIDARITY ECONOMY OF COURSE BUT I 

00:44:52.000 --> 00:44:54.000
DON'T WANT ANYBODY TO LEAVE, IF WE 

00:44:54.000 --> 00:44:57.000
CAN'T HAVE A COOP, IT DOESN'T COUNT. 

00:44:57.000 --> 00:44:59.000
THAT IS NOT TRUE, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE 

00:44:59.000 --> 00:45:02.000
SOMETHING THAT IS FORMAL OR LEGALLY 

00:45:02.000 --> 00:45:05.000
INCORPORATED IN ORDER TO MEET THE NEEDS 

00:45:05.000 --> 00:45:08.000
AND BE LED AND HELD BY THE PEOPLE USING 

00:45:08.000 --> 00:45:11.000
IT.   

00:45:11.000 --> 00:45:13.000
THE NEXT SLIDE IS ONE ABOUT THE SEVEN

00:45:13.000 --> 00:45:16.000
 COOPERATIVE PRINCIPLES TO GIVE MORE 

00:45:16.000 --> 00:45:20.000
ABOUT THAT. THE 

00:45:20.000 --> 00:45:24.000
COOPS HAVE PRINCIPLES THAT FOR

00:45:24.000 --> 00:45:28.000
 INTERNATIONALINTERNATIONALLY AGREED 

00:45:28.000 --> 00:45:31.000
TO. THERE IS VOLUNTEER

00:45:31.000 --> 00:45:33.000
 MEMBERSHIP. THEY ARE DEMOCRATICALLY 

00:45:33.000 --> 00:45:36.000
CONTROLLED, WORK WITH EACH OTHER RATHER 

00:45:36.000 --> 00:45:39.000
THAN COMPETE. THE MEMBERS PARTICIPATE 

00:45:39.000 --> 00:45:43.000
ECONOMICALLY, SO THEY SPEND THEIR MONEY

00:45:43.000 --> 00:45:45.000
 OR MAKE THE MONEY THERE.

00:45:45.000 --> 00:45:48.000
 THEY ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE 

00:45:48.000 --> 00:45:51.000
COMMUNITY, THEY CARE ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE 

00:45:51.000 --> 00:45:54.000
BESIDES THEMSELVES AND GIVE BACK AND 

00:45:54.000 --> 00:45:55.000
ENGAGE. THEY ARE DEDICATED TO 

00:45:55.000 --> 00:45:58.000
EDUCATION, TRAINING AND INFORMATION 

00:45:58.000 --> 00:46:03.000
WHICH MEANS WHEN YOU JOIN A COOP,

00:46:03.000 --> 00:46:05.000
 YOU ARE PART OF A GROUP THAT IS

00:46:05.000 --> 00:46:07.000
 COMMITTED TO TRAIN YOU TO FULLY 

00:46:07.000 --> 00:46:10.000
PARTNER. THE EDUCATION PART STARTS TO 

00:46:10.000 --> 00:46:13.000
PLAY IN AS YOU ARE LEARNING AND WANT TO 

00:46:13.000 --> 00:46:17.000
DEVELOP MORE. THERE IS FEW ICONS

00:46:17.000 --> 00:46:19.000
 THAT GOES WITH EACH 

00:46:19.000 --> 00:46:22.000
ONE. I AM RUNNING OUT OF TIME. THERE IS 

00:46:22.000 --> 00:46:23.000
A DEFINITION OF COOP. I WILL

00:46:23.000 --> 00:46:25.000
 SKIP.  

00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:28.000
WE ARE SHORT ON TIME. AS WE ARE TRIKE 

00:46:28.000 --> 00:46:30.000
TO BRING THESE TOGETHER SOLIDARITY 

00:46:30.000 --> 00:46:34.000
ECONOMY AND DISABILITY JUSTICE, THERE 

00:46:34.000 --> 00:46:40.000
IS VALUES RIGHT?  THE MIDDLE.

00:46:40.000 --> 00:46:41.000

00:46:41.000 --> 00:46:44.000
 ANTI-CAPITALISM. UNDERSTANDING THAT WE 

00:46:44.000 --> 00:46:47.000
ARE IN AN ECOSYSTEM, ACCESS IS A 

00:46:47.000 --> 00:46:50.000
PRACTICE, AS DUSTIN SAID IT IS A

00:46:50.000 --> 00:46:53.000
 CULTURE AND VALUE THAT PEOPLE AND THE 

00:46:53.000 --> 00:46:56.000
EARTH'S WORTH IS NOT DETERMINED BY 

00:46:56.000 --> 00:46:59.000
MONEY. IT IS NOT THE RICHEST

00:46:59.000 --> 00:47:02.000
 GET TO DID WHATEVER THEY WANT. AND

00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:04.000
 THERE IS COLLECTIVE 

00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:07.000
LIBERATION, THAT IS TIME TOGETHER, THE 

00:47:07.000 --> 00:47:11.000
IDEA THAT OPPRESSION, 

00:47:11.000 --> 00:47:14.000
ABLEISM, RACISM, SEXISM, ALL THE SORT

00:47:14.000 --> 00:47:16.000
 OF THINGS THAT FOLKS ARE CAMPAIGNING

00:47:16.000 --> 00:47:18.000
 AGAINST AND TRYING TO TRANSFORM, ALL 

00:47:18.000 --> 00:47:19.000
THE THINGS ARE CONNECTED INTO A SYSTEM. 

00:47:19.000 --> 00:47:22.000
RIGHT?   

00:47:22.000 --> 00:47:25.000
AND YOU CAN'T UNDO ONE, YOU HAVE

00:47:25.000 --> 00:47:27.000
 TO WORK HOW THEY ARE ALL CONNECTED. 

00:47:27.000 --> 00:47:29.000
SOMETIMES THIS IS TALKED ABOUT IN 

00:47:29.000 --> 00:47:32.000
INTERSECTIONALITY, YOU MAY KNOW THAT 

00:47:32.000 --> 00:47:35.000
TERM. ANYWAY, COLLECTIVE LIBERATION IS 

00:47:35.000 --> 00:47:38.000
THE IDEA OF WE WILL WORK FOR ALL OF 

00:47:38.000 --> 00:47:41.000
THEM. WE ARE WORKING FOR ALL OF US TO 

00:47:41.000 --> 00:47:42.000
GET FREE AND NOT FOCUS ON ONE

00:47:42.000 --> 00:47:46.000
 GROUP.  

00:47:46.000 --> 00:47:49.000
WE UNDERSTAND LIKE FANNIE SAID, NOBODY 

00:47:49.000 --> 00:47:51.000
IS FREE UNTIL EVERYBODY IS FREE. 

00:47:51.000 --> 00:47:53.000
DUSTIN, I WILL INVITE YOU BACK ON.   

00:47:53.000 --> 00:47:57.000
>> DUSTIN GIBSON:  THIS IS DUSTIN, WHAT 

00:47:57.000 --> 00:48:00.000
I AM SHOWING NOW IS THE IMAGE OF

00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:03.000
 PURPLE HANDS REACHED OUT WITH PEOPLE

00:48:03.000 --> 00:48:06.000
 BEING HELD IN THE HANDS. ONE IS A 

00:48:06.000 --> 00:48:10.000
BLACK PERSON SIGNING LOVE YOU OR LOVE. 

00:48:10.000 --> 00:48:13.000
AND THEN ANOTHER IS TWO PEOPLE HUGGING 

00:48:13.000 --> 00:48:17.000
ONE SITTING IN A CHAIR WITH THE

00:48:17.000 --> 00:48:20.000
 BACKDROP OF THE SKY

00:48:20.000 --> 00:48:23.000
SKYLINE OF 

00:48:23.000 --> 00:48:27.000
PITTSBURGH. ACCESS AND DISABILITY FOR

00:48:27.000 --> 00:48:30.000
 PITTSBURGH MOVEMENT ORGANIZATION. THIS 

00:48:30.000 --> 00:48:33.000
IS SOMETHING CHEYENNA AND I WORKED ON 

00:48:33.000 --> 00:48:37.000
FOR THE BETTER PART OF A YEAR NOW.

00:48:37.000 --> 00:48:40.000
 OF COLLECTING GROUP OF

00:48:40.000 --> 00:48:43.000
 12 ORGANIZATIONS IN

00:48:43.000 --> 00:48:47.000
 PITTSBURGH THAT WORK IN WATER 

00:48:47.000 --> 00:48:51.000
PROTECTION. WORK AROUND JAIL SUPPORT.

00:48:51.000 --> 00:48:52.000
 WORK AROUND PRISON LITIGATION. 

00:48:52.000 --> 00:48:56.000

00:48:56.000 --> 00:48:59.000
WORK AROUND TRANS JUSTICE, JUSTICE

00:48:59.000 --> 00:49:03.000
 FOR TRANS FOLKS, A VARIETY OF

00:49:03.000 --> 00:49:06.000
 DIFFERENT ISSUE AREAS.  WE CHOSE 

00:49:06.000 --> 00:49:08.000
PITTSBURGH BECAUSE THERE IS CONNECTIONS 

00:49:08.000 --> 00:49:10.000
WE CHOSE IT BECAUSE IT IS A PLACE 

00:49:10.000 --> 00:49:14.000
BECAUSE OF INDUSTRY THAT IS EXISTED 

00:49:14.000 --> 00:49:17.000
THERE, BECAUSE OF, THE CONNECTION TO

00:49:17.000 --> 00:49:20.000
 COAL MINES AND CONNECTION TO STEEL

00:49:20.000 --> 00:49:25.000
 MILLS, THE DISABILITY EXIST

00:49:25.000 --> 00:49:27.000
 THAT SUPER HIGH RATES AND IT IS 

00:49:27.000 --> 00:49:31.000
GENERATIONAL AT THIS POINT. WE HAVE 

00:49:31.000 --> 00:49:36.000
LIKE TYCOONS LIKE ANDREW 

00:49:36.000 --> 00:49:39.000
CARNEGIE THAT DUMP FLUORIDE IN THE 

00:49:39.000 --> 00:49:43.000
WATER. THAT IS A SOURCE

00:49:43.000 --> 00:49:46.000
 THAT CREATES DIFFICULT FOR FOLKS. ALSO

00:49:46.000 --> 00:49:50.000
 KNOWING THAT, WE DON'T HAVE

00:49:50.000 --> 00:49:52.000
, THIS IS MY PERSPECTIVE A

00:49:52.000 --> 00:49:55.000
 REAL MOVEMENT AROUND DISABILITY AND 

00:49:55.000 --> 00:49:58.000
JUSTICE FOR DISABLED PEOPLE. OR 

00:49:58.000 --> 00:50:00.000
LIBERATION.   

00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:04.000
WE WANT TO BE PART OF BUILDING THAT. 

00:50:04.000 --> 00:50:07.000
AND ONE WAY IN WHICH WE ARE TRYING TO 

00:50:07.000 --> 00:50:09.000
APPROACH IS IS GOING TO FOLKS THAT 

00:50:09.000 --> 00:50:13.000
SOMETIMES ARE DISABLED THEMSELVES. AND 

00:50:13.000 --> 00:50:16.000
THEN ABSOLUTELY DO WORK THAT IMPACTS 

00:50:16.000 --> 00:50:19.000
DISABLED PEOPLE. AND THEY ARE PEOPLE

00:50:19.000 --> 00:50:22.000
 THAT MOBILIZED, THEY ARE THE FOLKS 

00:50:22.000 --> 00:50:25.000
THAT ARE ORGANIZING AND WE WANT 

00:50:25.000 --> 00:50:27.000
DISABILITIED PEOPLE TO PARTICIPATE IN 

00:50:27.000 --> 00:50:30.000
THE TYPE OF MOVEMENT. INSTEAD OF 

00:50:30.000 --> 00:50:33.000
TRADITIONALLY GOING TO THE DISABILITY 

00:50:33.000 --> 00:50:38.000
RIGHTS ORGANIZATIONS THAT LONG BEEN 

00:50:38.000 --> 00:50:41.000
RACISM, ABLIST, ALL OF THE THINGS, AND 

00:50:41.000 --> 00:50:44.000
ASKING THEM TO CARE ABOUT RACIAL 

00:50:44.000 --> 00:50:47.000
JUSTICE OR CARE ABOUT OMEGA 

00:50:47.000 --> 00:50:50.000
GRANT JUSTICE, IT IS GOING TO PEOPLE

00:50:50.000 --> 00:50:52.000
 CONCERNED WITH JUSTICE, AND BUILDING 

00:50:52.000 --> 00:50:55.000
IT AROUND DISABILITY AND INTEGRATING IT 

00:50:55.000 --> 00:50:57.000
INTO THEIR WORK AND THEN BE IN THOUGHT 

00:50:57.000 --> 00:51:01.000
AND PRACTICE AROUND WHAT IS THIS NOW 

00:51:01.000 --> 00:51:04.000
LOOK LIKE TO CREATE

00:51:04.000 --> 00:51:07.000
 SOLIDARITY ECONOMY SPECIFICALLY FOR 

00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:11.000
DISABILITY. THAT IS THE GOAL OF THE 

00:51:11.000 --> 00:51:12.000
COHORT, IT IS A LARGE GOAL. BUT WE NEED 

00:51:12.000 --> 00:51:13.000
LARGE SOLUTIONS FOR THE SHIT THAT WE 

00:51:13.000 --> 00:51:16.000
ARE DEALING WITH RIGHT NOW.   

00:51:16.000 --> 00:51:19.000
BECAUSE IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE.   

00:51:19.000 --> 00:51:22.000
AND OUR HOPE IS THAT WE CAN DO THIS

00:51:22.000 --> 00:51:25.000
 AND NOT JUST PITTSBURGH AND OTHER

00:51:25.000 --> 00:51:28.000
 PLACES THAT ARE SIMILAR TO THE CITY.

00:51:28.000 --> 00:51:31.000
 I WILL PAUSE NOW, WE ARE ALMOST OUT OF

00:51:31.000 --> 00:51:35.000
 TIME AND WE SHOULD TAKE QUESTIONS.

00:51:35.000 --> 00:51:38.000
 SO, CHEYENNA I CAN READ

00:51:38.000 --> 00:51:41.000
 THE FIRST QUESTION FROM THE CHAT AND 

00:51:41.000 --> 00:51:44.000
EITHER OF US CAN 

00:51:44.000 --> 00:51:47.000
RESPOND. I WOULD LOVE MORE IDEAS

00:51:47.000 --> 00:51:49.000
 OR STRATEGIES TO USE THE CURRENT

00:51:49.000 --> 00:51:52.000
 SYSTEMS THAT WE ARE IN. I AM THINKING, 

00:51:52.000 --> 00:51:55.000
I AM SPECIFICALLY THINKING ABOUT DATA 

00:51:55.000 --> 00:51:58.000
SYSTEMS AND STRUCTURES MEASUREMENT, 

00:51:58.000 --> 00:52:02.000
DISABILITY DEFINITIONS AND DATASETS. TO

00:52:02.000 --> 00:52:06.000
 SUBVERT, CHALLENGE, HIGHLIGHT, EDUCATE 

00:52:06.000 --> 00:52:09.000
ABOUT INJUSTICES THAT EXIST ACROSS 

00:52:09.000 --> 00:52:12.000
SPACES. I GUESS IS IT POSSIBLE TO WORK 

00:52:12.000 --> 00:52:17.000
WITH UNJUSTICE DISMANTLE THE SYSTEMS OR 

00:52:17.000 --> 00:52:20.000
WE NEED TO FOCUS ON OUTSIDE CREATING 

00:52:20.000 --> 00:52:22.000
THE 

00:52:22.000 --> 00:52:25.000
SYSTEMS.  

00:52:25.000 --> 00:52:29.000
THERE IS A LARGE QUESTION, IMPLORE YOU 

00:52:29.000 --> 00:52:29.000
TO TACKLE IT FIRST.

00:52:29.000 --> 00:52:30.000

00:52:30.000 --> 00:52:32.000
>> CHEYENNA LAYNE WEBER:  THIS IS 

00:52:32.000 --> 00:52:36.000
CHEYENNA, SOMETIMES WE TALK ABOUT 

00:52:36.000 --> 00:52:39.000
RESIST AND BUILD. SO YOU ARE GOING TO

00:52:39.000 --> 00:52:42.000
 RESIST CERTAIN THINGS. HARM REDUCTION, 

00:52:42.000 --> 00:52:46.000
AND YOU WILL BUILD THE THINGS YOU WANT 

00:52:46.000 --> 00:52:48.000
TO SEE. IT IS BOTH. SOME

00:52:48.000 --> 00:52:51.000
 PEOPLE LIKE TO DO ONE KIND OF WORK 

00:52:51.000 --> 00:52:54.000
OVER THE OTHER KIND AND THAT IS OKAY.  

00:52:54.000 --> 00:52:56.000
DEFINITELY NEED PEOPLE DOING BOTH. 

00:52:56.000 --> 00:52:58.000

00:52:58.000 --> 00:53:02.000
ONE THOUGHT THE EXAMPLE I HAD, THINKING 

00:53:02.000 --> 00:53:06.000
ABOUT YOUR EXAMPLE HAS BEEN AROUND

00:53:06.000 --> 00:53:10.000
 DISABLED PEOPLE IN PRISONS FOR EXAMPLE 

00:53:10.000 --> 00:53:13.000
AND HOW THATS TRACKED AND THE

00:53:13.000 --> 00:53:16.000
 NARROW WAYS IT IS TRACKED AND THE WAYS

00:53:16.000 --> 00:53:19.000
 IT IS MADE INVISIBLE, A LOT OF

00:53:19.000 --> 00:53:23.000
 DISABLED FOLKS WHO HAVE SPECIFIC NEEDS 

00:53:23.000 --> 00:53:27.000
AND DESIRES AND DREAMS AND CARE, AND

00:53:27.000 --> 00:53:30.000
 ARE NOT GET THAT CAN BECAUSE IT FALLS

00:53:30.000 --> 00:53:34.000
 OUTSIDE OF THE DATA 

00:53:34.000 --> 00:53:37.000
COLLECTION DEFINITIONS THAT FOCUSED ON 

00:53:37.000 --> 00:53:40.000
THIS, AND DUSTIN AND I CONNECT TO,

00:53:40.000 --> 00:53:43.000
 IT IS CALLED 

00:53:43.000 --> 00:53:47.000
HEARD, THAT WORK WITH DISABILITIED

00:53:47.000 --> 00:53:51.000
 FOLKS IN PRISON.   

00:53:51.000 --> 00:53:54.000
>> DUSTIN GIBSON:  THIS IS LIKE AN AREA

00:53:54.000 --> 00:53:58.000
 WE CAN SEE HOW SOLIDARITY ECONOMY

00:53:58.000 --> 00:54:01.000
 EXISTS AND WITH THE EXTENSION OF

00:54:01.000 --> 00:54:04.000
 AN ATTEMPT AT DISABILITY JUSTICE, WE 

00:54:04.000 --> 00:54:06.000
CAN CREATE SOLIDARITY, THE EXAMPLE I 

00:54:06.000 --> 00:54:10.000
WILL GIVE IS LIKE, THE WORK THAT 

00:54:10.000 --> 00:54:13.000
CENTERS TO GET PEOPLE OUT OF NURSING

00:54:13.000 --> 00:54:16.000
 FACILITIES, WHEN WE WERE DOING THAT

00:54:16.000 --> 00:54:18.000
 WORK IN PITTSBURGH, THE NURSING HOME

00:54:18.000 --> 00:54:22.000
 TRANSITIONING PROGRAM, WE HAD MONEY 

00:54:22.000 --> 00:54:25.000
FOR IT AT ONE POINT AND THE MONEY WENT 

00:54:25.000 --> 00:54:27.000
AWAY. AND OUR DESIRE TO STILL GET 

00:54:27.000 --> 00:54:31.000
PEOPLE OUT OF NURSING HOME DIDN'T GO 

00:54:31.000 --> 00:54:35.000
AWAY. WE HAD TO BE RESTORES

00:54:35.000 --> 00:54:38.000
 /* REINFORCEFUL. TO GET HOUSING,

00:54:38.000 --> 00:54:42.000
 COUCHES, TO BUILD ACCOMMODATIONS

00:54:42.000 --> 00:54:46.000
 INTO HOMES AND

00:54:46.000 --> 00:54:50.000
 ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY THAT

00:54:50.000 --> 00:54:52.000
 CILS DO. MOST IS BASED OFF OF

00:54:52.000 --> 00:54:55.000
 LIVED EXPERIENCE AND WHAT WORKS FOR US 

00:54:55.000 --> 00:54:59.000
AS INDIVIDUALS. THESE ARE EXAMPLES, 

00:54:59.000 --> 00:55:02.000
DISABILITY JUSTICE PIECE THAT I WOULD

00:55:02.000 --> 00:55:04.000
 ADD IS WHEN WE EXPAND THAT TYPE OF 

00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:05.000
WORK INTO PRISONS, IT WAS THE SAME 

00:55:05.000 --> 00:55:13.000
SHIT.   

00:55:13.000 --> 00:55:16.000
DIFFERENT FELON CLASS. BUT THE SAME

00:55:16.000 --> 00:55:19.000
 COUCHES, THE SAME ASSISTIVE

00:55:19.000 --> 00:55:22.000
 TECH, THE SAME CONTRACTORS THAT BUILD 

00:55:22.000 --> 00:55:25.000
THE ACCESSIBILITY, ALL OF THAT IS THE 

00:55:25.000 --> 00:55:28.000
SAME. THE NETWORKS IS THERE, WHAT IS

00:55:28.000 --> 00:55:31.000
 MISSING IS THE POLITICAL PIECE,

00:55:31.000 --> 00:55:35.000
 FOLKS THAT ARE TRAPPED IN THE SYSTEM 

00:55:35.000 --> 00:55:35.000
AS HIGHER RATES THAT WE HAVE DOCUMENTS.

00:55:35.000 --> 00:55:39.000

00:55:39.000 --> 00:55:42.000
THE PRISON SYSTEM ITSELF, SERVE

00:55:42.000 --> 00:55:45.000
 AS A FUNCTION OF SOCIETY

00:55:45.000 --> 00:55:48.000
 IS PERPETUATING ABLEISM. WITH THAT

00:55:48.000 --> 00:55:52.000
 POLITICAL EDUCATION PIECE AND SELINA, 

00:55:52.000 --> 00:55:55.000

00:55:55.000 --> 00:55:58.000
 PART OF THAT, WE ARE ABLE

00:55:58.000 --> 00:56:03.000
