All Our Families: Disability Lineage and the Future of Kinship Fink Jennifer Natalya
A provocation to reclaim our disability lineage in order to profoundly reimagine the possibilities for our relationship to disability, kinship, and careworkDisability is often described as a tragedy, a crisis, or an aberration, though 1 in 5 people worldwide have a disability. In All Our Families, disability studies scholar Jennifer Natalya Fink argues that this originates in our families. Why is this common human experience rendered exceptional?
This makes disability and its diagnosis traumatic and exceptional.Weaving together stories of members of her own family with sociohistorical research, Fink illustrates how the eradication of disabled people from family narratives is rooted in racist, misogynistic, and antisemitic sorting When we cut a disabled member out of the family story, disability remains a trauma as opposed to a shared and ordinary experience.
