Ann Bemrose and Bernadine talk about how Toxic Positivity impacts on our mental health for those who live with physical and mental health challenges. Toxic Positivity is a means of denial by overlaying of positive ideas onto a reality that has some inherently negative aspects. It’s excessive and overgeneralized happiness results in invalidating authentic emotions in oneself and others that are deemed not ok. This then alienates many who feel they must hide emotions and reactions to real circumstances. Ann and Bernadine enjoy a frank conversation their experience of others who display toxic positivity.
Bernadine then talks with Rebel Fayola Rose and Olumoroti George about their upcoming Disability Justice Dreaming Sessions. DJ Dreaming sessions provide participants with an opportunity to imagine an optimistic and visionary world while questioning narrow definitions for those who may experience ableism. Come here about this novel approach to looking at the future.
