Students with disabilities in post-secondary education have experiences of stigma that can prevent them from disclosing disabilities or using academic accommodations. Without disclosure, these students lose access to academic accommodations that can better enable their success. Access workers at post-secondary institutions are mindful of the barriers that stigma can produce and often work to reduce it. However, access workers and students with disabilities may have different understandings of stigma, including the most prevalent and concerning sources of stigma for students and the particular consequences that stigmatization provokes. I work to explain and understand these differences as consequences of varying discourses on stigma and theorize the impact of these discourses on disabled college students.

Annabelle Xerri, a Maltese Deaf activist, and Erika Hoffmann-Dilloway, a hearing American anthropologist, analyze Annabelle’s social media posts detailing how she navigates sensory and linguistic asymmetries between herself and her hearing children. These posts are part of a larger activist effort to ensure that d/Deaf children in Malta are provided access to sign language. We situate these social media posts in the broader moment in which her activism is unfolding, showing how the posts navigate the benefits and potential pitfalls of different popular and academic framings of the relationship between spoken and signed languages. In so doing, we follow Leila Monaghan, whose work called for and evinced nuanced attention to how broader historical contexts shaped and are shaped by d/Deaf social and linguistic practices and which attended to the roles that d/Deaf and hearing theories about language have played in these processes.

In honoring Leila Monaghan’s contributions to anthropology, I invite readers to recall two of the many things she did well throughout her career and through a variety of research areas. First, Monaghan’s work inspired a sustained focus on advocating for the fundamental rights and dignities of participants, including the right to sign languages. Our 2022 Society for Linguistic Anthropology panel, in honor of Monaghan’s scholarship, remembered her influence as we argued for the need for “access to and access through sign languages.” Second, Monaghan called for an understanding of identities as evolving, pluralistic, and even “experimental,” a word she used to describe the interplay of deaf and Christian identities (Monaghan 1991).
为了表彰莱拉·莫纳汉对人类学的贡献，我邀请读者回忆她在整个职业生涯和各种研究领域中做得很好的两件事。首先，莫纳汉的工作激发了对倡导参与者的基本权利和尊严的持续关注，包括使用手语的权利。为了纪念莫纳汉的学术成就，我们的2022年语言人类学学会(Society for Linguistic Anthropology)小组在讨论“通过手语获取和使用”的必要性时，记住了她的影响。其次，莫纳汉呼吁对身份的理解是不断发展的、多元化的，甚至是“实验性的”，她用这个词来描述聋哑人和基督徒身份的相互作用(莫纳汉1991)。

G. Thomas Couser (1997:533) asserts in “Disability, Life Narrative, and Representation,” “The autobiographical act models the agency and self-determination the disability rights movement has fought for....” With autoethnographical prose, focusing on individual and community psychosocial implications of trauma, the paper offers story and analysis centered on embodied experience. This paper grounds lived experience of severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) with a lens of de-medicalizing disability. This paper provides windows on largely hidden and little understood forms of impairment from a frequently marginalized individual. The paper examines the experiences of a severe TBI survivor by exploring the temporal dissonance of impaired cognitive processing. The paper uses pathography to give emphasis to relevant Critical Disability Studies and Critical Trauma Studies scholarship. The paper explores how the intersections of living with multiple impairments (disabilities) while pursuing autoethnography as an unaffiliated researcher strengthens disabled identity, empowers the drive for self-determination, and provides agency to assert oneself politically to better reduce stigma and minimize oppression by the dominant culture. This paper examines the confluence of composing personal experiences of severe TBI survival with Disability Studies scholarship that promotes centering of self and (re)creating identity.
G. Thomas Couser(1997:533)在《残疾、生活叙事和再现》中断言，“自传体行为模拟了残疾人权利运动所争取的代理和自决....”。通过自我民族志散文，关注创伤的个人和社区社会心理影响，本文提供了以具体化经验为中心的故事和分析。本文从去医学化残疾的角度，对严重创伤性脑损伤(TBI)患者的生活经历进行了分析。这篇论文为一个经常被边缘化的个体提供了一扇窗户，让我们了解到大部分隐藏的、很少被理解的损伤形式。本文通过探索受损认知加工的时间失调来研究严重创伤性脑损伤幸存者的经历。本文运用病理学的方法，重点介绍了相关的关键残疾研究和关键创伤研究。本文探讨了作为一名独立的研究者，在追求自我民族志的同时，如何与多重缺陷(残疾)生活在一起，加强残疾人的身份认同，赋予自决的动力，并提供在政治上坚持自己的机构，以更好地减少耻辱，最大限度地减少主流文化的压迫。本文探讨了严重创伤性脑损伤生存的个人经历与残疾研究奖学金的融合，促进了自我中心和(重新)创造身份。

How can an anthropologist usefully contribute to the revitalization of a “dormant” language? This article considers simplification as an inherent, virtually inevitable aspect of language revitalization and as one that is by no means simple. A linguistic anthropologist’s understanding of the complexities of simplification, I suggest, can be the basis for valuable contributions to community-based language-revitalization efforts, particularly when the anthropologist is participating fully in those efforts by learning and apprentice-teaching the language.

This article explores the impact of a critical pedagogy of forensic science approach combined with an immersive field experience to train student members of a volunteer humanitarian forensic science team in preparation for immersion in the politically charged and emotionally challenging conditions surrounding migrant death at the United States-Mexico Border. Utilizing self-reflections from student team members before and after their fieldwork, the impact of a holistic and multi-faceted training approach can be evaluated. The goal of this training approach is to produce capable forensic scientists, as well as anthropologists who recognize the power structures inherent in such situations and subsequently work to kindle social change. Comparing expectations before fieldwork to experiences obtained during fieldwork can be a powerful way to gauge their progress in a transformative learning process.
