Almost all "-ism"s that create a superior species, body, class emanate from the patriarchal capitalist system. Throughout history, this system has emerged oppressed identities, normalities, and the intersection of all discriminations. Although intersectionality is a most-argued subject for social sciences in recent years, the intersection of ableism and speciesism has not been studied sufficiently. However, these two “isms” havesimilar outcomes in many aspects. Killing and discriminating against disabilities and eating animals is one of the explicit examples. From inquisition decisions and gas chambers to slaughterhouses and zoos, it can be seen that speciesism and ableism have an intersectional consequence owing to a sovereign power created by the patriarchal capitalist system. The study based on these ideas will disclose the intersection of ableism and speciesism by examining both theoretical and historical intersect practices. In this context, this paper will be conceptual in nature, and it will be based on detailed literature collected from various sources, such as books, research articles. Besides, at the beginning of this study, a theoretical framework will be created to provide an explicit outcome.
