Inhaltsangabe

Academic Ableism brings together disability studies and institutional critique to recognize the ways that disability is composed in and by higher education and rewrites the spaces, times, and economies of disability in higher education to place disability front and center. For too long, argues Jay Timothy Dolmage, disability has been constructed as the antithesis of higher education, often positioned as a distraction, a drain, a problem to be solved. The ethic of higher education encourages students and teachers alike to accentuate ability, valorize perfection, and stigmatize anything that hints at intellectual, mental, or physical weakness, even as we gesture toward the value of diversity and innovation. Examining everything from campus accommodation processes, to architecture, to popular films about college life, Dolmage argues that disability is central to higher education and that building more inclusive schools allows better education for all.

Great Introduction to an Important Topic

A lot of info but presented amazingly and clearly.
I had to take breaks when listening to it because it gave me a lot to digest and think about. Ehich is probably even better than if I listened to it in one go.
A lot of important information and it honestly felt like a great introduction for Ableism.
Thr contents of this book will definitely stick me and make me pay attention to details and standards of how things are done more.
