Discussion questions: (Your post should demonstrate well-thought-out and crafted analyses)
· How does the early disability rights movement resemble other social movements that we read about last week?
· How is it different?
· Think of ways that they may be similar or different even if it’s not obvious from the readings and videos.
· You may want to consider who seems to be included and who does not, as well as what the arguments/dilemmas are on both sides of the issue.
