Description

Violence and economic oppression affect women the world over and women with disabilities face even greater risks than their counterparts. Women with disabilities experience violence and poverty in different ways and at higher rates than nondisabled women and all men.This book explores genderbased violence and disability from the vantage point of resistance movements. Emphasis is placed on giving voice to the experiences of thirteen community organizers and selfadvocates working to end genderbased violence. These stories told from Australia Bangladesh Canada Ghana India Kenya United States Nepal and Yemen identify common challenges and transformative aspects of community organizing.The challenges that emerged from these stories were negative perceptions of disability a lack of representation in disability and feminist movements inadequately addressing intersectional oppression structural violence and rights justice and policy issues. These community organizers and advocates also identified important transformative elements which they describe as seeing their experiences reflected in the work wanting a better situation for others a raised awareness about genderbased violence against people with disabilities having support from the community and improved advocacy.The book concludes with a discussion on the ways that movements to end violence can transform individual and collective consciousness about disability and gender oppression. Ultimately in order for social movements to be ongoing and progressive they require supporters and actors who individually and collectively recognize a common struggle share a desire to ensure better for themselves and others and exhibit a propensity to act.
