Green Left, an ecosocialist tendency within the Green Party
of England and Wales. is planning to hold an online open meeting on ‘Disability
and Ecosocialism' to discuss the politics of disability and its relation to
other aspects of Green and left politics in mid-November 2024.
Disability is a label applied to a wide variety of people.
It can be used officially by agencies such as government, or unofficially in
everyday speech, and many more hurtful terms may be used instead. It can lead
to many forms of discrimination against those labelled ‘disabled’, in
employment, in housing, in access to public facilities and in many other areas.
Such discrimination has been challenged by the ‘disabled’ themselves, but how
much has been gained?
If you would like to contribute to this meeting or can
suggest suitable speakers, please contact Peter Murry at yrrumuk@googlemail.com
