Dear Colleagues and Friends,
I am still in the process of recruiting participants for my dissertation. I would very much appreciate it if you would be willing to share the following request with any and all persons you think may be able to help me. Please see the request below and contact me if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you!
Angel
Dear Person of Interest,
My name is Angel Miles and I am currently working towards completing my PhD in Women's Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park. In order to accomplish this goal, I am conducting a study for my dissertation on homeownership and African American women with physical disabilities. I am writing to you because I am seeking to recruit African American women with physical disabilities between the ages of 25 and 55. I am seeking women who are either homeowners or non-homeowners and live in the states of Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Washington, DC. As a thank you for their participation, self-administered questionnaire participants will be entered into a raffle to receive a $50 visa check card. In addition, a $10 visa check card will be provided to each person who participates in a follow up interview. If you or someone you know fits the criteria for participation in this study, please contact me for more information about this research project, the purpose of which is to learn more about the experiences, barriers and contributors to homeownership for African American women with physical disabilities. All participant information shared within this study will remain confidential. I look forward to sharing more information with you about this exciting new opportunity! Thank you.
Sincerely,
Angel
Angel Miles

Somatic Engagement Reading at Pegasus, Berkeley, on Shattuck: Tuesday, 7.30 PM
Hello everybody, I'd like to invite you to the Berkeley launch party of Somatic Engagement, this coming Tuesday at 7.30 at Pegasus on Shattuck. Georgina Kleege, Katherine Sherwood, Amber DiPietra, Denise Leto, Eleni Stecopoulos and Christian Nagler will read!
Somatic Engagement: the politics and publics of embodiment.
Edited by community artist, scholar, and dancer Petra Kuppers (author of Disability Culture and Community Performance), the book opens with Arnieville, a Californian protest camp of disability, homelessness, and poverty activists.
From there, a series of enactments welcome trespass and incursion in the name of survival.
Amy Sara Carroll on the Transborder Immigrant Tool, a GPS phone that uses poetry to lead the disoriented and thirsty to water caches and safety sites in the US-Mexican borderlands.
Devora Neumark on washing Tali Goodfriend's hands in Lebanese olive oil outside the hotel where Colin Powell speaks to the Jewish National Fund, hands gliding over one another in the middle of an angry public protest.
Christian Nagler on writing an experimental novel while conducting an oral history of agricultural labor practices and migration patterns at the site of the Panamerican Highway in El Salvador.
Georgina Kleege on touch and blindness as she discusses Katherine Sherwood?s paintings of magic and the human brain, paintings that Sherwood began after her stroke ten years ago.
Eleni Stecopoulos on the healing quest as research and the complexities of cultural appropriation.
Amber DiPietra and Denise Leto on the collaborative connections of breath, body, pause, pain, and form. Somatic Engagement is an exploration of how relation and support play out in breaths, steps, and touch.
128 pages; 12 color plates
Available November, 2011.

"My mother’s voice, my father’s eye, and my other body: The sound of deaf photographs"
Recently posted on the Disability Studies in the Humanities [DS-HUM] listserv:
Hello DS-HUMers,
I am a Ph.D. from UC Riverside working on a manuscript of my dissertation
that traces Deafened gestures through twentieth century literature. I have
been following this discussion for the last few years and have met a few of
you at various conferences. The work and discussions here are both
informative and inspirational!
More recently, I have been using a critical and theoretical lens to bear on
memoir as I think through the intersections of voice, body and sign language
as a CODA. This week my multimedia composition: "my mother’s voice, my
father’s eye, and my other body: the sound of deaf photographs" is featured
on Sounding Out!(soundstudiesblog.com), an informative online discussion
about the role of sound and listening in contemporary culture, as part two
of a three-part discussion at the intersection of deafness, disability
studies and sound studies.
I would love to join this conversation and welcome feedback from the DS-HUM
community; let's show SoundingOut! that there is an audience interested in
listening to Deafness!

Florida charter-school movement and disabled students' equal access to education
From the Disability Studies in the Humanities [DS-HUM] Listserv:
Dear listers,
I need the advice of the wise souls on this listserv as to whether my apprehensions are accurate or overblown. A bad situation, it seems to me, is developing here in Florida with regard to equal access to education.
A radical bunch has taken over the Florida Board of Education, and next week they are set to adopt policies that, over the coming decades, will make the school system so inhospitable to disabled children that it will drive them out of it. The policies are designed to promote the charter-school movement, of which Florida is in the vanguard.
Next week, Florida Education Commissioner Gerard Robinson and the Florida Board of Education are going to adopt an extensive set of policies relating to how schools are graded. A school’s grade currently is determined by the cumulative scores its students earn on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT), taken by typically developing children, and on the Florida Alternative Assessment (FAA), taken by students whose IEPs stipulate this test the appropriate one.
The proposed changes that bear on disabled students have to do with requiring EVERY student to take either the FCAT or the FAA. My 12-year-old son, who is blind and a spastic quad (CP) and has no speech and is severely cognitively impaired, works on life skills at his school such as swallowing soft solid food, self feeding, and learning to use three-dimensional touch symbols to signal his basic needs. The FAA assesses academics skills in reading and math and does not bother testing for the things my son works on. Still, the proposed rules say my son must take the FAA. His score will be 0, and, along with the other E.S.E. students in the school similarly scoring 0, this large number of 0s entering into the school’s overall score will earn the school an F. Receiving an F then will set in motion a process leading to the school being taken over by a private charter. The private charters already operating in Florida do not accept disabled students, as this NPR news report makes c!
lear (“Florida Charter Schools Failing Disabled Students,” by JOHN O'CONNOR and SARAH GONZALEZ, Dec. 14th, 2011)
http://www.npr.org/2011/12/14/
The new commissioner and the state board say the feds (“No Child Left Behind”) are forcing them to grade every school and score every child. However, the feds are doing no such thing. Following a Tea Party agenda, Commissioner Robinson and the board want to bring as many of Florida’s public schools' grades as possible down to F, thus making them candidates for charter takeover. An Orlando Sentinel article of June 21st, 2011, states, “[t]he state Board of Education voted unanimously to hire [the new Florida Education Commissioner Gerard] Robinson, who before his appointment in Virginia worked for a group that advocates for school choices outside traditional public schools.”
A privatized public school system here in Florida will become so inhospitable to disabled children that their parents will be forced to keep them at home. As far as I can see, these proposed changes are a clever way to take us back to pre-1973 by circumventing Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and every federal legislative mandate since then. Am I wrong to see this move in such dark terms? Am I being paranoid?
