Abstract
in English, Portuguese

In this theoretical essay, we assume ableism as a grammar that sustains several duplicities that hierarchize and discriminate reputed dissident corporalities. We maintain this argument based on the violation of rights to health and life of disabled people, travestis, trans and intersex people, and children and adolescents, in practices of surveillance and correction, which sustain health and education institutions, and Language as the central point of such enabling.

Nesse ensaio teórico assumimos o capacitismo como uma gramática que sustenta diversos duplos que hierarquizam e discriminam corporalidades reputadas dissidentes. Sustentamos esse argumento partindo da violação de direitos à saúde e à vida das pessoas com deficiência, pessoas travestis, transexuais e intersexos e das crianças e adolescentes em práticas de vigilância e correção, que sustentam as instituições de saúde e educação, e a Língua.
