Hello,
I am trying to track down the exact references for the following quotation.
Can anyone help please?
"The history of portrayal of disabled people is the
history of oppressive and negative representation. This has meant that
disabled people have been presented as socially flawed able bodied people,
not as disabled people with their own identities". (Hevey, 1992, page xx).
Also, I have read contradictory information as to when disabled children
were legally able to be educated in schools with non-disabled children. Was
it 1981 or 1993? Please can anyone supply a website or other reference.
Thanks
