More and more we are discovering that many people have been removed from our collective studies. While history classrooms all over the country are learning about events like the European settlement all the way to the Great Depression, few turn their attention to how the major change points of U.S. history have impacted people living with various impairments and even shaped the way we define disability in our culture.
