This short video, by CRDJ intern Mary Yoon, introduces DisCrit (Disability Critical Race Theory), a framework that explores how racism and ableism intersect to shape systems of power that marginalize disabled people of color. Grounded in disability studies and critical race theory, the video outlines DisCrit’s seven core tenets and how they guide efforts toward racial and disability justice.

Subini Annamma’s research critically examines the ways students are criminalized and resist that criminalization through the mutually constitutive nature of racism and ableism, how they interlock with other marginalizing oppressions, and how these intersections impact youth education trajectories in urban schools and youth prisons. Further, she positions students as knowledge generators, exploring how their narratives can inform teachers and special education. Subini Annamma is an Associate Professor in the Graduate School of Education at Stanford University. Co-sponsored by 19 different departments and programs across campus, the Race in Science, Technology, and Medicine Series virtually brings together Black, Indigenous and other scholars and professionals of color (BIPOC) from around the nation to explore the intersections of race, racism and scientific practice and to share their personal experiences. Invited speakers talk candidly about how they design their work for equity and for justice. The series addresses the role of race in such issues as energy infrastructure, nuclear arms control, algorithmic accountability, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and synthetic biology. The McCoy Family Center for Ethics in Society is committed to bringing ethical reflection to bear on important social issues through research, teaching, and community engagement.
