Over at the website On the Human (a project of the National Humanities Center), Michael Bérubé has written an essay called "Humans, Disabilities, and the Humanities." I'm a fan of Bérubé's work, so it was very cool that I was asked to comment on his essay. It seems to me the folks running this site are making an effort to have thoughtful academic conversations happening online--i.e., they wanted me to write something more substantial than, "Pwned!" or whatever. Those of us invited are commenting right now, and I think at the end of the coming week Michael is going to write a response.
Have a look, and let me know what you think!
Also, in case folks from that site click over here, here's a recent picture of Maybelle in her fabulousness. I apologize for the eye booger which I didn't remove before I took the picture. I ought to have a link to a recent reading video, or something like that (just this morning she learned to read the word "Nina"). Perhaps I'll get one of those up soon.
