This course takes an intersectional, decolonizing, interdisciplinary approach to critical disabilities studies, inviting students to think critically about the reproduction of oppression and systemic barriers to inclusion operating out of prevailing socially constructed discourses of disability. Centering the invaluable scholarly and social rigour arising from minoritized perspectives, the course facilitates multi-disciplinary exploration of critical perspectives that engage social justice, social policy, human rights, social movements, intimate and international politics.

Prerequisite(s): WGST 112.3 or 18 credit units of university courses.
