[Access Lunch] Accessibility Lunch Reading for 5/21

[Cynthia Bennett]

Hi Everyone,

We'll kick off summer Accessibility Lunch reading with a bit of history and introductions to disability studies and universal design concepts. As such, we'll read the introduction to critical STS scholar Aimi Hamraie's<https://aimihamraie.wordpress.com/> book, Building Access. The entire book is a wonderful history of universal design and accessibility of the built environment from the 1800's until recent. It is available and chapterized on Project Muse with your CMU log in but if you cannot get them, please let me know if you would like additional chapters and I will send them to you.

Attached is the introduction and the file with all of the footnotes.

We'll meet this Thursday, May 21 from 12 to 1 PM on Zoom at this link.

Please come having read the chapter as the summarizing time will prioritizing answering clarification questions. As such, feel free to bring your notes and do not feel as if there is an expectation that you understand everything in the readings; that's why we have reading group to talk about the confusing and controversial points.

See you Thursday!

Cynthia

Subject: [Access Lunch] Announcing accessibility lunch reading group


Hello everyone!



For the summer, we've decided to hold an accessibility lunch reading group. Today, we'll be brainstorming texts and topics that we're interested in reading about over the summer and signing up for initial slots.



Each week, we'll announce the paper, book chapter, blog post, or article that we're reading beforehand, and someone will lead a discussion about that work during the lunch.



In the meantime, we're going to be filling our fall speaker slots so please let us know if you, or someone you know, might like to speak at a lunch.



Hope to see you soon!
