[Wamvan] Day 5 post: Why women with disabilities are one of the most victimized in the world, and how media literacy can change that

[Joanna Chiu]

Hi everyone!

Thanks to everyone who replied to my facebook plea last night for resources
and media analysis. My post today is on why women with disabilities are one
of the most victimized groups in society, and how media literacy can help
change that. Although I just grazed the surface, I learned a lot about this
very undercovered/understudied topic from researcher Raquel Baldwinson
(2011 WAM! Vancouver workshop presenter) and others who contributed media
analysis. Thank you!
