WPDHAC Project Director Pancho Timmons participated in the 9th Annual Disability & Change Symposium

06/02/2022

WPDHAC Project Director Pancho Timmons participated in the 9th Annual Disability & Change Symposium, sponsored by Institute on Disabilities at Temple University on March 30th. 

Disability and Justice: The Evolution and the Revolution

This year, we celebrate disability and the movement toward justice.  People with disabilities have struggled in the name of justice.  But little is known about that, as history is often told by the professionals: including doctors, educators, and reformers. Disability history reveals a hidden past where disabled people were doing, advocating, and organizing. Disability is being re-written into history (Daniel J. Wilson). Each panel during the day explores ways in which disabled people were/are re-writing history. This online educational module asks everyone to think about how we find, share, and engage our greater communities in this important history.

Please share with your friends, neighbors, and co-workers: https://disabilities.temple.edu/programs-services/learning-and-academics/disability-studies/9th-annual-disability-and-change-symposium/di
