Common Ground Research Networks is happy to announce “Meet the Author: A Conversation Series.”

Our next conversation will be with Jack Trammell, the author of "With Justice for All: A Social History of Disability in America" on 13 September 2023, 12:00 PM, Pacific Time (GMT-08:00 US & Canada).

With Justice for All is a narrative social history of disability in America. This book incorporates individual lived experiences, historical figures, legal developments, and social movements. The story of disability told here is arguably the story of America. Historian Douglas Bayton maintained that disability is everywhere—once you begin to look for it—and this text attempts to look in many places, some of which have not been looked into before by the critical scholarly eye. The story also brings the Disability Rights Movement (DRM) into its proper historical position, side by side with the Civil and Gender Rights Movements and the ongoing imagination of a more equitable America.
