Accessible Citizenships: A Talk by Julie Avril Minich

Date and time
Tuesday, February 11, 2014 - 5:15pm
Location
San Gabriel Room, University-Student Union
Description

Accessible Citizenships examines Chicana/o cultural representations that conceptualize political community through images of disability. Working against the assumption that disability is a metaphor for social decay or political crisis, Julie Avril Minich analyzes literature, film, and visual art post-1980 in which representations of nonnormative bodies work to expand our understanding of what it means to belong to a political community.
