SYMPOSIUM ON THE DISABILITY AND SOCIAL MOVEMENTS
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, NOVEMBER 3, 2000
"INTERSECTIONS OF CIVIL RIGHTS AND SOCIAL MOVEMENTS; PUTTING
DISABILITY IN ITS PLACE"
The symposium marked the opening of the archive of the
Disability Rights and Independent Living Movement, an
ongoing series of comprehensive oral histories and an
extensive collection of written records and photographs of
the earliest leaders and organizations in Berkeley. The
collection is a research platform for scholars and a primary
historical resource of national significance. The symposium
placed the disability movement within the context of other
pivotal social and civil rights movements. Sponsors hope the
symposium and the Bancroft collection foster the inclusion
of the disability movement in the study of U.S. history and
stimulate thought and research into the emerging field of
disability studies.
