Interdependent Scholar Em Rabelais (fae/femme/faer) is a white, disabled, queer, non-binary/agender, trans femme abolitionist health ethicist, problem-solver, story-teller, analyst, nurse, and disrupter and dismantler of whiteness and white supremacist feminisms in education, research, healthcare, and other settings. In addition to whiteness as a racist oppression, fae also addresses whiteness as it impacts disability through ableism and transgender people through transmisia and transmisogyny. Faer goals in this work are to support community members, students, workers, administrators, and others to make current practices accessible and without oppression. Em has done this with hospitals, academia, students, patients, researchers, educators, and others. To connect with femme, visit Em on Twitter or faer website, emrabelais.com.
