The Thorn in Our Side

Abstract

This article is reprinted with permission from the Nov./Dec. 1995 issue of The Disability Rag (www.raggededgemagazine.com).

Editors Note: This is a new section of RDS intended to highlight “classic” articles or commentary that helped to lay the foundation of disability studies and disability rights, or, as in the case of the article reprinted below, simply make a point that never tires from being repeated! Reprints can be from journals, newsletters or other media. If you have ideas for material that would fit in this section, please contact Associate Editor Megan Conway at mconway@hawaii.edu.
