On December 3, the 2021 International Day of People with Disabilities, Dr. Lynn Rose, CGDS Director of Disability Studies, attended the theatre and art exhibition hosted by the Rozh Society and the Amazha Organization. After opening remarks from Rozh Society directors and board members, three actors performed a pantomime play about choice and control. About twenty pieces of artwork by members of the disability community were on display. CGDS works against both sexism and ableism, among other forms of intersectional oppression.
