Disability Experiences: Memoirs, Autobiographies, and Other Personal Narratives by G. Thomas Couser & Susannah B. Mintz<\/a><\/p>\n What We Have Done: An Oral History of the Disability Rights Movement by Fred Pelka<\/a><\/p>\n Human Rights and Disability Advocacy by Maya Sabatello & Marianne Schulze<\/a><\/p>\n Accessible America: A History of Disability and Design <\/a><\/p>\n Disability Rights Movement | Backgrounders<\/a><\/p>\n Americans with disabilities are a group of approximately 40.7 million people that today lead independent, self-affirming lives and who define themselves according to their personhood\u2014their ideas, beliefs, hopes and dreams\u2014above and beyond their disability. Since the mid 1900s, people with disabilities have pushed for the recognition of disability as an aspect of identity that influences the experiences of an individual, not as the sole-defining feature of a person.<\/p>\n Eugenics and Disability: History and Legacy in Washington | Disability Studies | College of Arts and Sciences – University of Washington<\/a><\/p>\n “On March 22, 1909, Washington became the second state in the nation to pass a law allowing for the forced sterilization of people with disabilities and other citizens in the name of improving society. Why was eugenics so widely popular during the early 20th century? What is the significance today of the hidden and complex history of eugenics? This project, Eugenics and Disability: History and Legacy in Washington, begins to explore this local history and discuss how it may be relevant to contemporary attitudes and policies that impact people with disabilities and other communities.”<\/p>\n \u2018Nothing About Us Without Us\u2019: 16 Moments in the Fight for Disability Rights,\u00a0The New York Times<\/em><\/p>\n “Though it is difficult to distill modern disability history in one thread, here are a handful of moments that have stood out in the collective memories of disability advocates.”<\/p>\n One Out of Five: Disability History and Pride Project<\/a><\/p>\n “This teaching resource has been updated as of September 2020 and includes new modifications for virtual instruction and elementary school classrooms, in addition to the original materials designed for middle and high school students. One Out of Five was designed by the Washington State Governor’s Office of the Education Ombuds in partnership with Rooted in Rights and two local educators, Adina Rosenberg and Sarah Arvey.”<\/p>\n Schools for blind, deaf still evolving after 130 years,\u00a0The Columbian<\/em><\/p>\n “It was 130 years ago this month when the territorial Legislature approved a bill to create the Washington School for Defective Youth to educate ‘the deaf, blind and feeble-minded children of the Territory of Washington.’ Thankfully, public attitudes toward people with disabilities have changed drastically since 1886. That\u2019s not all that\u2019s changed. New technology helps bring services to blind and deaf people in ways never before possible and opens doors for them to navigate successfully in the world.”<\/p>\n Affect the Verb<\/a><\/p>\n Our Mission & WSD History \u2013 Washington School for the Deaf (PDF)<\/a><\/p>\n Affect Conference Talks<\/a><\/p>\n![\"The](\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41t+PLiDs3L.jpg\")
