Since previous representations of disability have been incomplete, misguided, and unimaginative, this text encourages scholars to refashion media so that it disrupts the status-quo and lends itself toward a more liberatory politics. Images from film, television, and social media are assessed using critical disabilities studies, media studies, cultural studies, and other interdisciplinary fields.
