A quick definition of ableism:

Term: ABLEISM

Definition: Ableism is when people treat disabled individuals unfairly or ignore their needs and rights. This type of discrimination often benefits able-bodied people without reason. Another word for ableism is disability discrimination.

Example: A person who uses a wheelchair is not able to access a building because there are no ramps or elevators. This is an example of ableism because the building was not designed to accommodate the needs of disabled individuals.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Ableism is a form of discrimination against people with disabilities. It is when people are treated unfairly or not given the same opportunities as able-bodied people. This can happen in many different ways, such as not providing accommodations for people with disabilities or assuming that they are not capable of doing certain things.

Example 1: A job interviewer doesn't hire a qualified candidate because they use a wheelchair, assuming they won't be able to perform the job duties.

Example 2: A school doesn't provide sign language interpreters for a deaf student, making it difficult for them to participate in class.

These examples illustrate ableism because in both cases, the person with a disability is not given the same opportunities as someone without a disability. They are being discriminated against because of their disability, which is not fair or just.
