It was wonderful to hear him say this at #COSP12. Now it needs to move from words to action.

Research by Madison Green and Meredith Bagley @UofAlabama is bringing "crip" studies to #sportcomm. In a case study on @Kaepernick7, Green and Bagley are using medical & social models of #disability to assess "civic disability" in sport & athlete activism. #ICA_Sports #ICA19

W. Timothy Coombs discusses the increasing use of sensory rooms for autistic fans & those w/ other needs by English #PremierLeague clubs, interestingly framed as either "accessibility" or (more effectively) "inclusion" through "family" lens + quotes from moms #ica19 #ICA_Sports
