Date: 2016-03-15 04:46 pm (UTC)Just like Afro-American, Chicano/a, and Womens' Studies, the language of Disability Studies becomes less accessible to perform Serious Academic Subject.
I've been to the Society for Disability Studies annual meet twice. The first time I understood 1/4 of 1/3 of the presentations. The last time I chose more carefully, and they had simultaneous captioning, and I managed to get something useful from 5/7 panels. And there's a steady core of non-academic folk who ensure that there's programming useful to activists.
Have you ever gone to an academic DS conference?
