Disability History is everywhere. We encourage you to listen to @laurenlpoole chat with @DrCraig_B about accessibility in Museums and drawing on lived experience to reframe established collections through a #DisHis lens. https://t.co/tUuQIvWs7y 7/8
We’d also like to mention again @CripAntiquity! Many scholars in the CripAntiquity community are researching disability in the past #DisHis or are scholars w/ disabilities researching history! Check out some of the profiles & resources on the website https://t.co/TELqSfmWnZ 3/8.

The movie 'Of Mice and Men' was used as evidence to justify the law that enabled the execution of people with learning disabilities. The judge's felt the fictional portrayal was evidence that all people with learning disabilities were inherently violent. - Hughes, (2002). #dishis

@IHRHistoryLab Hi all! I'm Alexandra, and I'm a PhD Researcher at @TeessideUni. My research is examining disability during Ptolemaic Egypt & Hellenistic Greece through museum artefacts and also looking at how ableism and disablism has shaped scholarship on disability during this period #DisHis
Image Description #1: Text reads "Black #DisHis Month Fund by @spoonieuniproject. Help us give $300-400 each to Black Low Income working class Disabled folks during this Black History Month." Image features red hearts and light to dark skin hands reaching out towards the title.
On the 50th Anniversary of Joni Mitchell’s incomparable album Blue, remember that the utterly unique chords that define her sound are in part due to early disability caused by polio. Disabled people so often create beauty, not in spite of our disabilities, but because of them. 🎶
@classic_film The 1977 TV movie “Wilma.” It stars Shirley Jo Finney as polio survivor and triple-gold-medalist Wilma Rudolph. Denzel Washington makes his movie debut!

Silver-plated ear trumpet, by FC Rein & Son, 1850-1900. London, England. Science Museum.
The ivory ear tip sat inside the ear canal. The ear trumpet amplified sounds down the tube. The ear trumpet is a type of parabolic reflector.

I’m thrilled to see that @GoogleDoodles is celebrating Dr. Ludwig Guttman’s birthday!! #DisabilityPrideMonth #DisabilityHistory #DisHis ♿️
Google Doodle, Dr. Ludwig Guttman who fled Nazi Germany in 1939, settled in England, work with veterans with spinal injuries, and started the Stoke Mandville Games, to help with physical strength and dignity, which became the Paralympics in 1960.
I’m boosting this since I was just tweeting about how disability played a role in Joni Mitchell’s musical development. Disability was formative for Little Richard too, although in a different way. 🎶 #DisabledMusicians #DisHis #DisabilityTwitter #DisabilityHistory
Hardly anyone ever mentions that Little Richard was disabled. He used to talk about it in interviews, but authors rarely wrote about it in books or articles.
He speaks about it at 8:55 here:

Disability has shaped so much of music history! We need to stop ignoring that.
