Every year on March 1st, we observe Disability Day of Mourning to memorialize and honour victims of filicide around the world. Zoe Gross began Disability Day of Mourning back in 2012, and Joeita Gupta invited her to speak about the importance of this day. Zoe shares how systemic ableism, media bias, and attitudinal barriers have skewed the way the stories of these filicide victims are told. Dax created the Disability Day of Mourning Memorial website. We hear their perspective on the impact this research has and why they’re continually driven to do this work.
