Interview Transcript Link
In this episode, Clayton is joined by members of the Access in the Making (AIM) Lab at Concordia University, Prakash Krishnan, Emery Vanderburgh, and Nicholas Goberdhan to discuss the work of the AIM Lab. The AIM Lab is an anti-colonial, anti-ableist, feminist research lab working on issues of access, disability, environment and care through creative experimentation. We talk about why there is a need for work like that of the AIM Lab to intervene in academic and institutional ableism and how the AIM Lab upholds the tenets of anti-colonialism, anti-ableism, and feminism in their research and practice.
