Feminist Disability Studies

SHOW FINAL EXAM SCHEDULE

Credit: 3 hours.

Explores the complex relationship between gender and disability. Approaching disability as a social and political category rather than a strictly medical one, we will ask: how is the language of disability used to produce and police a variety of gender, sexual, and racial identities as non-normative? How might debates over medicine, technology, and the concept of "natural" pit gender and disability against one another? How have feminist, queer, and transgender scholarship and activism engaged disability?

Prerequisite: One of the following: GWS 100, GWS 201, GWS 202.
