Produktbeschreibung

Disability Studies has emerged as an incisive inquiry into body politics, intersectionality theory and cultural politics. While its theories have resulted in less stereotypical considerations of mainstream (read: white) disabled subjects, they have not had as profound an effect on black disabled subjects. Blackness and Disability examines how disability informs the experience and representation of racialized subjects. The collection of essays discusses disability in terms of literature, history, education, cultural studies and sociology in an effort to illuminate how disability informs black body politics.
