SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Discussion: Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW \nIn honor of National Disability Employment Awareness Month and the thirtieth anniversary of the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act\, the Disability Studies Initiative is joining the Carsey-Wolf Center and the UCSB Library to host a virtual discussion with the directors of Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution (2020). \nIn the early 1970s\, teenagers with disabilities faced a future shaped by isolation\, discrimination\, and institutionalization. Located in the Catskills\, New York\, ramshackle Camp Jened exploded those confines. Jened was the teens’ freewheeling utopia\, a place where summertime sports\, smoking\, and make-out sessions awaited everyone; campers experienced liberation and full inclusion as human beings. Their bonds endured as many migrated west to Berkeley\, California\, a hotbed of activism where friends from Camp Jened realized that disruption\, civil disobedience\, and political participation could change the future for millions. \nCo-directors and producers Jim LeBrecht and Nicole Newnham will join Hannah Garibaldi (Film and Media Studies\, UCSB) for a virtual discussion of this fascinating documentary. ASL interpretation will be provided during the event. The film may be viewed in advance on Netflix. \nREGISTER NOW \nCosponsored by the IHC’s Disability Studies Initiative Research Focus Group\, the Carsey-Wolf Center\, the UCSB Library\, the Disabled Students Program\, Graduate Division\, and the Resource Center for Gender and Sexual Diversity (RCGSD)

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: “Cripistemologies of Pain”
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW \nDrawing together insights from disability theory\, literary studies\, and interdisciplinary pain studies\, Lau’s lecture contributes to what Alyson Patsavas has called “cripistemologies of pain” that prompt us to think from the position of pained lived experience to imagine radically different models of care that move beyond the reductive binary of either amelioration or annihilation of pain. Can we theorize a standpoint (or what Rosemarie Garland-Thomson has called “sitpoint”) theory of pain that attends to its crip and queer chronicities while also working toward new forms of care and interdependence? \nTravis Chi Wing Lau’s research and teaching focus on eighteenth- and nineteenth-century British literature and culture\, health humanities\, and disability studies. Alongside his scholarship\, Lau frequently writes for venues of public scholarship like Synapsis: A Journal of Health Humanities\, Lapham’s Quarterly\, Public Books\, and The Los Angeles Review of Books. His poetry has appeared in Barren Magazine\, Wordgathering\, Glass\, South Carolina Review\, Foglifter\, and The New Engagement\, as well as in two chapbooks\, The Bone Setter (Damaged Goods Press\, 2019) and Paring (Finishing Line Press\, 2020 forthcoming). \nCosponsored by the IHC’s Disability Studies Initiative Research Focus Group and UCSB’s Early Modern Center \nREGISTER NOW
