Were almost ready to launch Geez 34, but before we do, lets take one last look at issue 33. Here are Guest Editor Kates thoughts on why a Geez special issue on disabilities was important. We learned a lot working on the issue, and hope it was helpful for readers as well. Historically, talking about disability has often happened in one of two ways: either the person with a disability has been extolled as a larger-than-life entity who has triumphed over bodily suffering in order to live as normal a life as possible, or they have been treated as a marginalized individual whose life is a relative curiosity. However, neither of these images encourages that person to pursue a more inclusive and socially beneficial life within their community.
