Pride against prejudice

de Jenny Morris · Publicada por primera vez en 1991

In Pride Against Prejudice, Jenny Morris challengeswith passion, authority, and convictionthe reality of being different. Among the topics she covers are: current and historical debates on the quality of disabled peoples lives; the way disability is represented within Western culture; institutionalization and independence; feminist research and community care; and the politics of the disability movement. She asserts that, for too long, non-disabled people have not only defined the experience of disability but have had control over disabled peoples lives. This important book has grown out of an emerging organization of disabled people who are part of a powerful new culture.
