Tools of Exclusion: Race, Disability, and (Re)segregated Education

The authors explore the dynamic interplay between racism discrimination against someone based on perceived 'ability"in the resistance to school desegregation and inclusion of students with disabilities in general education. In attending to the workings of power that connect these two histories, the authors show how racialized notions of ability functioned to uphold segregated schooling and justify the use of special education as a tool of racial resegregation.
