“I’m not interested in the revolution, I’m interested in the day after the revolution” - utterly fab keynote from Dr Miro Griffiths MBE #CDS24
It was great to hear more about the SpinningPlates_CarerMH project at the #CDS24 conference. They highlighted how care is often not considered to be a part of disability studies, but the challenges that come with care in a disablist society are so important to acknowledge and address.
Prof Katherine Runswick-C Dr Martina Smith It’s the loveliest card. I think the rage is an invitation to folks too - one that says something like, ‘what we’ve being doing isn’t working.’ Maybe people think that rage infused research is flawed. I think it’s more ethical - and… true?
