Workshop: Neuroqueer Critical History
In person
Facilitator: Katie Sutton
Building on work problematizing ideas of norms in the history of medicine and sexual science, the workshop will complement the wider conference by going on a deep critical dive into early 20thcentury sources pivotal in shaping diagnoses such as autism and ADHD, reading these through the intersectional lens of gender/queer, critical disability/crip, and critical race studies. Emphasis will be placed on workshopping archival sources that thematize neuro- and gender diversity in intersecting ways. There will be opportunities to connect the discussion of archival sources with participant’s own research and methods. ECR participation is actively encouraged.
