Dear DISABILITY-RESEARCH Subscribers, New from UBC Press Free postage to UK customers http://www.combinedacademic.co.uk/mobilizing-metaphor [CREATOR: gd-jpeg v1.0 (using IJG JPEG v62), quality = 75]Mobilizing Metaphor Art, Culture, and Disability Activism in Canada Edited by Christine Kelly & Michael Orsini Mobilizing Metaphor illustrates how radical and unconventional forms of activism, including art, are reshaping the rich and vibrant tradition of disability mobilization in Canada. The artists, activists, and scholars in Mobilizing Metaphor reveal how their work is distinctive as both art and social action, and how disability activism is as varied as the population it represents. Sketching the shifting contours of Canadian disability politics, the authors challenge perceptions of disability and the politics that surround it, leading us to re-examine how we define oppression and how we enact change. Christine Kelly is an assistant professor in the Department of Community Health Sciences at the University of Manitoba. Michael Orsini is a full professor in the School of Political Studies at the University of Ottawa.
