Document Summary
Health research funding found: about 1 in 5 people around the world diagnosed disability that is either physical, emotional, or mental. National alliance on mental illness, also, found: 1 in 4 young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 have a diagnosable mental illness. Thesis: with the growing issue of disability across the world and on college campuses, ableist rhetoric is widely ignored and disenfranchises neurodivergent persons. Lit review: very little detailed research has been done on the intuition of postsecondary education and ableist rhetoric. Autism outlines how the educational sphere pushes people out of access to education because the education system caters to neurotypical persons. Shanna k. kattari begins to outline methods of deconstructing ableism in examining ableism in higher. Jeff roberts writes the rhetorical structure of disability: society can begin to absolve some of the oppression established with ableist rhetoric and the problematic construction of differently abled individuals within social norms.
