In \u003ci\u003eCrip Negativity\u003c\/i\u003e, J. Logan Smilges shows us what's gone wrong and what we can do to fix it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLeveling a strong critique of the category of disability and liberal disability politics, Smilges asks and imagines what horizons might exist for the liberation of those oppressed by ableism—beyond access and inclusion.
