Disability Awareness

• Disability Awareness—Do It Right! A Handbook, edited by Mary Johnson. Simulation exercises, in which participants get into wheelchairs, tie on blindfolds or stuff earplugs into their ears to &quotsimulate&quot having a disability, have become popular &quotAwareness Day&quot activities. But they've also come under fire from disability activists and educators, who criticize them as demeaning and inaccurate. This how-to guide from the Ragged Edge online community offers tips, techniques and handouts to organize a fun, effective Awareness Day with activities that disability rights activists support. Helps you lead follow-up discussion and even spur social change.
