{in the media} We Can Say the Word ‘Fat’ at Inside Higher Ed
Over at Inside Higher Ed, writer Kallie Menard mentioned a piece I wrote for NAAFA a few years ago in her article on anti-fat bias in academia.
“We must begin by unlearning and re-educating ourselves on negative and harmful biases about fatness. Activists who engage in the ‘deliberate work of tearing down the systems that have created a world where fat people are denied full participation in society and life’ are considered fat liberationists, writes Lindley Ashline, a blogger for the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance, or NAAFA.”
Every Monday, I send out my Body Liberation Guide, a thoughtful email jam-packed with resources on body liberation, weight stigma, body image and more. And it’s free. Let’s change the world together.
