Disability Studies (DS

          What is Disability Studies (DS)? Write an “elevator speech” that describes the key aspects of the field of critical disability studies. By this I mean a short summary that could be delivered in the span of an elevator ride, i.e. about one to two minutes long. Your explanation of CDS should do several things: be written in your own words, be accurate and succinct, provide all the essential information, and grab the attention of your listener. In writing your speech, try to think about a specific circumstance in which you might have the opportunity to introduce someone to the field of CDS. This part of the paper must include citations to specific material from the course texts.
