Hi everyone, my final project talks about the relationship between art and disability, since we've been discussing CCW and multiple mediums of art that the community have created and its such a vibrant field to dig deeper in. This is a narrated PPT, where each slide accompanies a short audio clip that once you click on it, plays the presentation for the slide. Hope you enjoy!

reading the "Mad at School: Rhetorics of Mental Disability and Academic Life" reminded me of "The Collected Schizophrenias Essays" by Esme Weijun Wang, so i wanted to talk more about the presence of mental illness/madness and how it affects our experiences in academics. Esme Wang's chapter, "Yale Will Not Save You", details how her experience at Yale defined her as a schizoaffective person, and how, eventually, the misdiagnosis of Bipolar disorder, the hesitancy to treat and medicate, and the pushout of mentally ill students led to her suicidal and out of school.
