Yesterday I posted (to BIOPOLITICAL PHILOSOPHY) a critical response to Heyes’s SEP entry about identity politics that is listed in this post. While the entry is purportedly a survey of relevant philosophical and theoretical work on the topic, Heyes pays no more than lip-service to disability, excluding discussion of relevant scholarship by disabled philosophers and thereby contributing to the exclusion from the profession that we persistently experience. To find my response in this vein, go here: Quote of the Week and It’s Only Wednesday: Cressida Heyes on Identity Politics and Disability – BIOPOLITICAL PHILOSOPHY
