Prof. Rosemarie Garland-Thomson of Emory University is one of the founders of disability studies. In this talk (held on November 5, 2020), she discusses the ways that the insights of disability studies can be applied to medical ethics contexts, especially around a creeping “velvet eugenics” implicit in current deployments of genetic technologies. The talk is followed by discussion with Prof. Amber Knight of UNC Charlotte and then several questions from attendees.
Rosemarie's talk is part of our 2020-21 series, "Stories for Survivability: How We Talk about Disability Ethics & Why it Matters." Even as disability has many meanings and contexts, narratives about disability are often narrow, reducing to celebrations of individual heroism or laments about lost experiences. These reductive stories fail to do justice either to the experiences of disabled individuals or the structural conditions of their lives. But if stories about disability can narrow our understanding, they can also expand them, creating strategies both to imagine this world and to move toward a more just one.
