Assignment: Book Review

1. What does the text suggest about the social and legal statuses attached to disability? In answering this question, think about what dynamics the author is addressing: How is power organized? Through what mechanisms or institutions? With what consequences?

2. Based on the authors' or editors' approach to the issues or any explicitly stated philosophy, what is the text's underlying political and social agenda? The answer to this question should not be: "the book's subject is...", but rather, an identification of what the authors' or editors' want. What changes in policy, practice, or social structures do they want to bring about? What are they trying to persuade their readers of?

3. How does the text relate to the course reserve readings, lectures or other materials? Be very explicit--- citing other readings, concepts from lectures, films, or speakers specifically. What does the text add to your understanding of the issues we are addressing in this course? Just mentioning other materials is not adequate. You should explain how they relate to the book or vice versa.

Again, the book is A Disability History of the United States by Kim E. Nielsen.

The two course readings needed are:

1. "Ten Principles of Disability Justice" by Patricia Berne et al,

2. "Disciplinary Disparities by Race & Disability: Using DisCrit theory to examine the manifestation determination review process in special education in the United States" by Amy Fisher, Benjamin W. Fisher & Kirsten S. Bailey
