Hey Guys, Here's my midterm project.
This was my second time watching Crip Camp, and I think I got even more out of it this time around. The first time, I was just overwhelmed with information. Why hadn't I learned any of this in school before? How does the movement exist now? What else did this movement accomplish that did not get featured in the film or in curricula? Questions buzzed in my brain for many weeks afterward and I convinced many more people to watch the film just so I could discuss it with someone.
In reflecting after class this week, I have been thinking a lot about communication. In Mel Baggs' video, she mentioned how "it’s only when I type something In your language that you refer to me as having communication." I wondered how I have judged folks for this same notion in the past. How have I considered people who may not communicate in ways I do as lacking intelligence, or even personhood? How can we work to value all types of communication? When Mel mentioned this in the video, I immediately starting thinking about ways to fix this issue, but it has been difficult for me to imagine ways to acknowledge and understand different types of communication that differ so far from our perceived norm.
The fire keeps burning and I am already ashes:

Hey y'all! I came across this video while researching for my paper that seems pretty interesting. It's on accessibility settings in video games rather than disabled representation so I didn't think it made much sense to put on that list, but in case anyone is curious about this topic here it is!
Here's a cool sign language TikTok style dance-ish post I came across the other day.
