Thank You, 2018 Composing Disability Presenters

Last week saw the fourth installation of the Composing Disability conference series.  Crip Politics and the Crisis of Culture was a great success, and the planning committee extends its heartfelt thanks to all of the presenters, participants, and various administrative offices at The George Washington University that were instrumental in helping the event happen.

As of right now--late March 2018--Composing Disability (and this blog) will enter hibernation mode.  When the planning for future Composing Disability events gets underway, updates will be posted here.
