SOC323H5 Lecture Notes - Murder Of Reena Virk, Incident Response Team, Commonwealth Of Nations
Document Summary
Idea of radical independence: somehow we think we are indpedent from ppl and we do things on our own, but disabled ppl cannot. We are never fully away from treating you in a certain way. Senora taylor going for a walk: but she is led by technology. Somehow anxiety over limitations that is revealed through a disabled person. Reena virk case* hate crime fits in a particular box, but not seen in latimers case. The pain is part of her disability bc it is a part of her lived experience. She didn"t choose to kill herself bc of her limitations. Started talking about legal/. technical ruling and the way the law is trying to address something that was wrong (latimer being wrongfully convicted) and that rhetorical power of the law. Today we look at commissions of inquiry: how does it address marginality (deal with things that are wrong)
