ICYMI: “…CRN 40 originally had the unwieldy task of justifying its own existence amongst fellow law and society scholars yet to develop the habit of identifying the “disability angle” inherent to most research areas.”
For our latest #CRNSpotlight, we spoke with @dorfmandoron.bsky.social (Seton Hall Law School), who co-chairs CRN 40: Disability Legal Studies alongside @odeliabay.bsky.social (York University, Osgoode Hall Law School).
