Summary

Chapter 2 considers the interaction of disability and other axes of discrimination and oppression in areas of the labor market, including employment status, benefits, and workplace environment. It outlines disability justice activists’ demands to increase employment access and economic stability for people with disabilities and identifies intersectional research strategies for incorporating multiple interacting statuses into economic analyses of labor market outcomes. Chapter 2 concludes with recommendations for guaranteeing equitable treatment of Black disabled people in proposals for a federal jobs guarantee, starting with the elimination of segregated facilities, trainings, and placements for disabled workers through Section 14(c) certificates.
