Curative Eschatology in advance
Mobilizing a “cripistemological” approach that “think[s] from the critical, social, and personal position of disability,” (Johnson and McRuer 2014, 134), this paper engages a fundamental site of Christian ableism: the expected cure of disability in the afterlife. I offer the term “curative eschatology” to describe the visceral attachment to the belief that bodies and minds will be remade without disability, madness, or illness in the eschatologic…
Governing the Voice
This essay argues that Speech-Language Pathology (SLP) emerged as a response to the early twentieth-century demand for docile, efficient, and thus productive speech. As the capacity of speech became more central to the industrial and democratic operations of modern society, an apparatus was needed to bring speech under the fold of biopower. Beyond simple economic productivity, the importance of SLP lies in opening the speaking subject up to manag…

The article offers a crip reading of “hegemony” to shift attention away from ideology to the material site of disability politics. Related yet distinct from normalcy, “fluency” is a technology of optimization and closure that operates upon semiotic bodies at the intersection of biopolitics and hegemony. Only by inscribing social order in our bodies and smoothing over the site of politics can compulsory able-bodiedness manifest as a stable, seamle…

Distending Straight‐Masculine Time
Drawing upon feminist, queer, and crip phenomenology, this essay argues that the distinct temporality of the lived, stuttering body disturbs the normalized “choreography” of communication and thereby threatens the disabled speaker's recognition as a speaking subject. Examined through the phenomenology of Maurice Merleau‐Ponty and Alfred Schutz, the disabled speaking body is temporally “out of step” with the normalized bodily rhythms and pace of c…
