University of Michigan Initiative on Disability Studies Fall 2020 Speaker Series: Criptographies (November 9, 2020 7:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/78118 78118-19965467@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, November 9, 2020 7:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Department of English Language and Literature

In conjunction with Rackham 580: Introduction to Disability Studies, UMInDS is pleased to bring outstanding scholars, activists, and scholar-activists to our campus as we explore criptographies. A word-play on terms cryptography, the study of ciphers and secret codes, and to crip, a colloquialism that assembles knowledge around nonnormative bodyminds, criptographies suggests an exploration of de-mapped ecologies of neurodivergence and nonnormative embodiment.
