This course seeks to bring disability into the center of historical inquiry, engaging with topics and themes in the histories of disability in the United States from the 19th to the 21st centuries.
<b>Some class sessions will meet in person with synchronous remote access, some will meet on Zoom only, and some will be pre-recorded lectures. There will be synchronous and asynchronous participation options, and all classes will be recorded.</b> The course
will consider how historical analysis can more fully encompass the lives of disabled people, as well as the ways that the concept of disability has worked with—and against—other forms of discrimination and rights movements in American society. Learning goals
are to deepen our understanding of disability and ableism in the past and how these may shape the present. How does disability as a category of analysis inform other social constructions such as race, ethnicity, gender, and sexuality? Specific topics to be
covered include the Section 504 sit-in for disability rights and the role of the Black Panther Party (1977); the history of eugenics, settler ableism, and the Canton Asylum (1902-1934); how disability and disability disavowal were used in debates over women’s
rights and gay rights; and the history of accessible design and disability material culture. This counts as a writing (W) course. Please contact instructor Joanne Woiak for further information (<a href="mailto:jwoiak@uw.edu"><span style="color:blue">jwoiak@uw.edu</span></a>).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
