Summary of Alice Wong's Disability Visibility
Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. #1 I had agreed to two speaking engagements. In the morning, I spoke to one hundred fifty undergraduates on selective infanticide. In the evening, it was a convivial discussion of assisted suicide. I was the token cripple with an opposing view. #2 I am in the first generation to survive to such decrepitude. Because antibiotics were available, we didn't die from the childhood pneumonias that often come with weakened respiratory systems. I guess it is natural enough that most people don't know what to make of us. #3 I met Peter Singer in 2001, when he was invited to speak at the College of Charleston. I was sent to put out a leaflet and do something during the QA, but I ended up having a conversation with Singer instead. #4 I had a debate with Peter Singer, an advocate for selective infanticide, in which I argued that the presence or absence of a disability doesn't predict quality of life. I questioned his replacement, baby theory, with its assumption of other things equal.
