The Disabled Anthropologist by Sumi Colligan
This book brings much needed attention to disabled anthropologists, making clear that disabled and anthropologist belong together. The disabled anthropologists who contribute to this volume and on which these chapters focus have refused erasure from a profession that would ignore their critiques and creativity.Sumi Colligan is a Professor Emerita from the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts.
