DSAB 605 - Disability and Diversity (3 Credits)

Prerequisite: None
This course focuses on disability as a category of diversity and identity in comparison with other categories of diversity and identity, such as race, class, gender and ethnicity, as well as on diversity within disability. It also critically examines different strategies that may be used to increase the freedom or liberty of people with disabilities. Disability as culture will be explored, as will systems of exclusion or disadvantage as they intersect with disability and other categories of diversity.
