Hi, all:
I need some good resources about lateral ableism and examples of it undermining the rights of disabled people. Any materials about internalized ableism would also be appreciated.
Best,

Hi Meghan. This article looks like it might be a good one about a specific kind of lateral ableism in research:

And here is a podcast episode about lateral ableism: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/harper-shruti/episodes/Ep--20---Lateral-Ableism-e1sdk63

Ep. 20 - Lateral Ableism by The Disabled Standardhttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/harper-shruti/episodes/Ep--20---Lateral-Ableism-e1sdk63
This week, Harper and Shruti discuss lateral ableism—when a disabled person is ableist to another disabled person. They share their personal experiences facing lateral ableism, pop culture examples, how lateral ableism connects to intersectionality and internalized ableism, and some of the most common ways lateral ableism manifests. They also discuss the complex dialectic of acknowledging that lateral ableism can come from pain, inaccess, and self-preservation while also condemning the harm and working to towards collective liberation. You can follow The Disabled Standard on Instagram @disabledstandard and on Twitter @disabledspod. Thank you for listening and supporting!
