    Afterward: Celebration, Eulogy, or Pride in Disability Scholarship and Community?
    (University of Hawaii at Manoa -- Center on Disability Studies, 2009) Anderson, David
    At the commencement of the Unruly Salon Series, Dr. Catherine Frazee asked us to remember that the “Unruly Salon ordains and inducts each of us to pay attention, to make connections, to respond – in short to contribute to the opening and unfolding of this cultural space” [sic]. Specifically, Dr. Frazee called on us to do the “work of excavation, weaving and coming to pride.” With these frameworks in mind, I will consider the impact and possible futures (or not) for the Unruly Salon from my perspective as a disabled student.

    (University of Hawaii at Manoa -- Center on Disability Studies, 2009) Brown, Sheena
    “I don’t want to be a burden!” is a statement that finds itself at the centre of familiar relationships between social actors as well as in structural relationships that frame disability and normalcy. A mother and daughter respond back, challenging its meaning as a nuanced articulation to demand citizenship rights.

    Re-Thinking Interdependence, Subjectivity, and Politics Through the Laser Eagles Art Guild
    (University of Hawaii at Manoa -- Center on Disability Studies, 2009) Lee, Chris
    This article considers how a university-based graduate seminar and a disability arts and cultural series interact to create positive combustion and render disability a little less stable in its reading. Inspired by the series entitled the Unruly Salon and the author’s own involvement with the Laser Eagles Art Guild, an arts group emphasizing the collaborations of people with disabilities and their able-bodied peers, this article offers a preliminarily discussion of the notions of interdependence and translation as they relate to, and problematize, normative understandings of disability and the autonomous subject.
