Moving Together Towards Collective Access (Dispatch)
We Move Together (WMT) (Fritsch et al., 2021) is a picture book that follows a mixed-ability group of children as they move around their city community.We see the children move in different ways -fast, slow, using their feet as well as wheelchairs, scooters, crutches, bikes, and canes.Along the way, the kids encounter a great many people and animals, as well as a number of obstaclescommunication barriers, inaccessible infrastructure, political di…
Risk and the Spectral Politics of Disability
Drawing on the institutional history of the sperm bank and legacies of eugenics, we consider how spectrums of risk simultaneously constrain and expand possibilities for disability justice. We do so by examining the discourses surrounding US-based Xytex Corporation sperm bank Donor 9623, described as the 'perfect' donor but later discovered to have a criminal record and a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Haunted by the dread of disability, we examine h…
Introduction
Introduction:The Biosocial Politics of Queer/Crip Contagions Kelly Fritsch (bio) and Anne McGuire (bio) In this special issue, we chart the limits and possibilities of queer/crip biosocial politics by examining the ways these ideas intersect and commingle with the narratives, practices, and temporalities of contagion. Crip and queer mark out, and indeed, flaunt the failures of normativity. And, in their fierce assertion of the possibility of an o…
De-regulating Disorder
The article examines the cultural effects of the spectrum as an increasingly popular way of classifying behavioural, mental, and emotional states. The past decades have witnessed shifts in the conceptualization of psychiatric diagnostic criteria. Disorders that were once understood as singular pathologies are increasingly re-configured as spectral pathological ranges. This rise of spectral thinking is evident in the most recent revisions to the D…

Social Buffering by God
Minds Between Us
This paper problematizes contemporary cultural understandings of autism. We make use of the developmental psychology concepts of ‘Theory of Mind’ and ‘mindblindness’ to uncover the meaning of autism as expressed in these concepts. Our concern is that autism is depicted as a puzzle and that this depiction governs not only the way Western culture treats autism but also the way in which it governs everyday interactions with autistic people. Moreover…
