Assuming Responsibility: Disability Rights and the Preparation of Art Educators
Year: 1994
Type: article
Abstract: Disability rights activists have presented the public with a socially transformative orientation to people with disabilities. The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 aided this transformation through policy. This article argues in support of art educators joining with disability rights activists in promoting equity. Minimum levels of competence in the understanding and awareness of disability rights issues by graduates of preservice art education programs are suggested.
