Dear All,
I noted in Jane Campbell and Mike Oliver's
"Disability Politics" stating that "Disabled delegates
were outraged at the decision not to ensure disabled
people's representation on the IYDP organizing
committee. In protest they walked out ...", which
indicates that the representation of disabled people
at the IYDP organizing committee was the major
reason for the formation of Disabled Peoples'
International.
From Driedger's "Last Civil Right Movement" and
DPI's official "The First Decade", I was reading that
representation of disabled people within RI was the
foremost reason for the DPI's formation and am
curious to know if there are other materials or statements that
indicate IYDP representation was the major factor.
Of courese these two overlap but the different weight
is given in the above different sources and accounts.
Any assistance or enlightments are welcome.
Best regards.
