Join us as we embark on the 4th Annual Symposium for Disability and Accessibility at Yale! This year, we have the extreme pleasure of welcoming author, journalist, and NPR correspondent Joseph Shapiro as our keynote speaker. His book NO PITY: People with Disabilities Forging a New Civil Rights Movement (Random House/Three Rivers Press), is read widely in Disability Studies classrooms and offers us a timely opportunity to reflect on the importance of the 35th anniversary of the ADA.
Following this keynote address, we will welcome researchers Tessa Charlesworth, PhD and Katie Wang, PhD as they discuss their groundbreaking studies on People with Disabilities.
ASL and CART services will be provided.
Stay tuned after the break for a joint discussion on the ADA, Disability Rights, and Disability Justice in the 21st century.
