O que é deficiência
Os estudos sobre deficiência surgiram no Reino Unido nos anos 1970. Deficiência não é mais uma simples expressão de uma lesão, mas que também denuncia a estrutura social que oprime a pessoa deficiente.
Assim como outras formas de opressão pelo corpo, tais como o sexismo ou o racismo, os estudos sobre deficiência descortinaram uma das ideologias mais opressoras de nossa vida social: a que humilha e segrega o corpo deficiente.

O que você sabe sobre deficiência? Quando você pensa em deficiência, você pensa em um problema de saúde ou uma patologia social? Se sim, vale a pena você ler este livro! A Débora faz um percurso pelos estudos e movimentos sociais de pessoas com deficiência e enfatiza a condição de humanidade das PCDs. Além disso, o que eu mais gosto: a gente termina o livro tendo certeza de que deficiência é DIVERSIDADE!
