Cindy Sue at Six Almost Seven announces plans to celebrate the eighth anniversary of the Olmstead decision at the Georgia State Capitol. The 1999 Supreme Court decision in Olmstead v. L.C and E.W ruled that Georgia must work toward placing institutionalized disabled citizens in community settings rather than simply warehousing them. It's one of the few certain judicial victories resulting from the ADA and it's had huge, far-reaching implications for disabled people's lives and for public policy. The anniversary is June 22. What are you planning?

The Journal of Literary Disability's first issue is now available online. (!) Seriously -- ! Stephen Kuusisto co-wrote one of the articles, and they all look interesting and exciting. Once I get a chance to read I'll no doubt be commenting on what's there.
