Becoming Dis-fabled: Embracing Responsible Storytelling as Community Care

To become ‘dis-fabled’ requires unlearning outdated models of disability in order to tell real, intersectional stories (not tired fables) that are truer, safer, and ultimately more interesting. When we tell these stories in our everyday lives, we normalize disability as a complex yet natural aspect of human variance. We also make room for others to show up authentically. In higher education, this process can facilitate deeper learning and greater overall achievement, which are added benefits—but not the ultimate purposes—behind becoming dis-fabled.
