I would like to thank the colleagues who mailed me off list.
As you can imagine, it is very depressing to be vilified,
but when people respond in such a supportive and collegial way,
it restores your faith in the disability community.
I will be sending copies of my work, and of the exchange of
articles, to those who requested them.
Forgive me for taking this opportunity to ask British colleagues to
watch out for an Open University documentary which I wrote for their
social science foundation course. It tries to explore changing
approaches to disability - medical model/social model and beyond -
and might be suitable for introducing students to disability studies.
You'll have to set videos, as it is showing on 6th May at 7am and
on 11th May at12-30 pm. The film - which is pretty wacky - is called
The Unusual Suspects.
Best to all,
Tom
