SUMMARY:Sunaura Taylor Book Talk
DESCRIPTION:Sunaura Taylor Book Talk\nWednesday\, Sep 25 2024\, 6PM\nSCA Flex Space 20 Cooper Square\, 4th Floor \n\nPlease join The Center for Disability Studies\, the Department of Social and Cultural Analysis\, and NYU Environmental Studies for a book talk where author\, Sunaura Taylor will be discussing her book\, Disabled Ecologies: Lessons from A Wounded Desert\, and will be in conversation with Professor Julie Livingston and Professor Thuy Tu. \n  \n Deep below the ground in Tucson\, Arizona\, lies an aquifer forever altered by the detritus of a postwar Superfund site. Disabled Ecologies tells the story of this contamination and its ripple effects through the largely Mexican American community living above. Drawing on her own complex relationship to this long-ago injured landscape\, Sunaura Taylor takes us with her to follow the site’s disabled ecology—the networks of disability\, both human and wild\, that are created when ecosystems are corrupted and profoundly altered.\n  \nWhat Taylor finds is a story of entanglements that reach far beyond the Sonoran Desert. These stories tell of debilitating and sometimes life-ending injuries\, but they also map out alternative modes of connection\, solidarity\, and resistance—an environmentalism of the injured. An original and deeply personal reflection on what disability means in an era of increasing multispecies disablement\, Disabled Ecologies is a powerful call to reflect on the kinds of care\, treatment\, and assistance this age of disability requires.
