Discussing Disability

Undergraduate / Graduate

What does it mean to be disabled? Are narratives surrounding "reasonable accommodation". "inclusion" and "diversity" alert to the various intersections between disability, race, gender, sexual orientation or immigration status? How can we design a movement rooted in the lived and experiential accounts of disabled people? Informed by scholarly work, first person accounts, movies and other media by and for disabled people, "Discussing Disability" engages with these questions while pushing students to interrogate their own biases in how they approach disability.
