Disability Media Representation

The book begins with core concepts in disability and media studies before exploring key themes like the ""tragic victim"" and ""supercrip"" stereotypes. It examines the impact of these stereotypes on both public perception and self-identity, contrasting them with empowering narratives found in independent media.

Finally, it discusses strategies for media professionals, disability advocates, and educators to promote more inclusive portrayals. This approach allows readers to understand the evolution and current state of disability representation in media.
