We adopted the concept of complaint biography from Sara Ahmed to help us frame our analysis.

"Ed should be about making sense of the world and finding your place in it... Our pedagogy should align with a vision for humanity, our vision for a shared existence. But first, we need safe spaces in which we feel free to imagine." -Ayesha Price.

Great to see this out in the world! @TessaDiphoorn and @Julietmberg

See the latest @IGSD_Shef blog siid-blog.sites.sheffield.ac… by Dr Esme Cleall @unishefhistory where she writes about her new book Colonising Disability exploring the way in which disability was represented in the British empire
ALT This is a picture of the front cover of Colonising Disability: impairment and otherness in the British empire, c. 1800-1914. The picture on the front of the book is a photograph of a group of blind girls reading a Braille book whilst standing in a garden.
Fantastic to interview such a great group of students today for our ESD internships. I am, as ever, really impressed by the enthusiasm, commitment, insight and capacity of our students...
Excited for the road ahead @alisheff
