Join writers Molly McCully Brown and Susannah Nevison for talk about the ways joy, kinship, and witness can reclaim and reshape traditional disability narratives, and can help to construct a world that foregrounds disabled voices and centers disabled bodies. They will also read from their collaborative poetry collection, In the Field Between Us.
