EVENT DETAILS: November 7, 2026 | 2pm-4pm CDT | Canadian Museum for Human Rights, 85 Israel Asper Way, Winnipeg, MB | ASL interpretation provided

In Disability Ways, d/Deaf and disabled people write about how their disability benefits them and how our communities, cultures and society are enriched through a disability perspective. Society has tended to view disability as a tragedy, as something to be fixed, as a negative force and burden. This anthology turns this view on its head. It includes the contributions of 33 people, from across Canada, and California.
