Legal reforms are necessary but insufficient - we need to change ableist culture.
The unemployment rate for disabled people has fallen less than 5% since the ADA passed. Access without Opportunity is not enough progress.
Thinking about the impact of the ADA on my own life, "we have come so far" =/= "we should be happy with where we are". Criticism is key.
ready for my interview with focus on abilities and Lex Frieden today on my experience with disability and the ADA! #DisabilityHistory
The history of the institution and asylum cannot be separated from Guantanamo. Pathology follows the same prescription.
Predator drones, Lost lives, Lost Limbs, Newfound Diagnoses, Depression, Anxiety, #neverforget the war on terrorism is about disability too.
The medical industrial complex and military industrial complex are two sides of the same coin. One "makes" and the other "cures" disability.
War is not about the protection of bodily integrity, it's about the prevention and production of disabled bodies.
Nirmala Erevelles on the relationship between the war on terror and people with disabilities. #NeverForget #DisabilityHistory #MustRead
The "war on terror" is part of #DisabilityHistory www2.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/news…
Media coverage of 9/11 is ground zero for ableist language - the headlines about "crippling" attacks always feel like an attack on crips.
@maddyruvolo yeah I'm still working on that! Stay tuned for the (re)launch later this week!
