"Taking up space as a disabled person is always revolutionary" (Ho, 2020, p. 115). We are mathematics education researchers and practitioners demanding radical changes within and beyond our field to center issues of/with/by the disabled. Our working group draws upon critical theories such as Disability Studies in Education, Critical Race Theory, and DisCrit in order to offer a justice-oriented vision of mathematics education based on conceptualizations of disability and ableism as it relates to other forms of oppression and identities (e.g., race, class, gender, queerness, citizenship, carcerality, material precarity, etc). Traditionally, research on mathematics and disabilities has been conducted within a special education paradigm. Under this paradigm, research often, implicitly or explicitly adopts a deficit and dehumanizing approach which locates the "problem" within the individual student rather than in the social, discursive, political, and structural context of education and other systemic dynamics of racialization (Meghji, 2022) and ableism (Goodley et al., 2019). We resist the continued dehumanization of and harms inflicted on disabled communities. We demand that mathematics education researchers and practitioners address this critical dissonance by taking up equity-oriented approaches to understanding disability and its intersections through Black Feminists and Disability Justice methodologies. Likewise, we call for more resonant harmony frameworks such as Multiple Mathematics Knowledge Bases and Culturally Responsive and Sustaining Practices that honor the voice, agency, and leadership of those most impacted. The purpose of this working group is to build upon our previous working group and to take up and move forward towards solidarity, interdependence, and collective action with the disabled community in our research agenda.
