Accessibility Café: Disability and Queerness

Join us for the next Accessibility Café! Presented by the Queen’s Human Rights and Equity Office & Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Indigenization (EDII) Faculty of Arts and Science.

Session Description:

This session is an introduction to the intersectionality between disability and queerness. It will touch on some main intersections between the two communities, highlight the value of disabled knowledge across all social movements, and inspire further education on the disabled community.

Speaker:

Elliot Moss (they/them) is a new public speaker, focused on spreading education and awareness on the queer and disabled community. They are trans nonbinary, queer, with multiple disabilities.

“I speak as an expert on my own experience navigating an ableist, queerphobic, capitalist world; the medical system, and public access. I subscribe to the social model of care, universal design, and radical love. I am a visual artist, poet, baker and blogger.”
