Liat Ben-Moshe: Decarcerating Disability (Public Lecture + Discussion)

November 2, 2023
Denney Hall 311
1:00PM-2:30PM

Liat Ben-Moshe is an associate professor of criminology, law, and justice at the University of Illinois at Chicago, working at the intersection of disability/madness, incarceration/decarceration and abolition.
Building on her book, Decarcerating Disability: Deinstitutionalization and Prison Abolition (2020), Ben-Moshe will show how abolition is not an unattainable goal but rather a reality, and how it plays out in different arenas of incarceration — antipsychiatry, the field of intellectual disabilities and the fight against the prison-industrial complex. Following her presentation, Ben-Moshe will facilitate discussion around key terms, concepts and practices linked to abolition and freedom dreams, including exploration of some of the limitations of disability rights and inclusion discourses.
