  • Disability in an Age of Environmental Risk by Sarah Gibbons a Thesis
    Disablement, Diversity, Deviation: Disability in an Age of Environmental Risk by Sarah Gibbons A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2016 © Sarah Gibbons 2016 I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This dissertation brings disability studies and postcolonial studies into dialogue with discourse surrounding risk in the environmental humanities. The central question that it investigates is how critics can reframe and reinterpret existing threat registers to accept and celebrate disability and embodied difference without passively accepting the social policies that produce disabling conditions. It examines the literary and rhetorical strategies of contemporary cultural works that one, promote a disability politics that aims for greater recognition of how our environmental surroundings affect human health and ability, but also two, put forward a disability politics that objects to devaluing disabled bodies by stigmatizing them as unnatural. Some of the major works under discussion in this dissertation include Marie Clements’s Burning Vision (2003), Indra Sinha’s Animal’s People (2007), Gerardine Wurzburg’s Wretches & Jabberers (2010) and Corinne Duyvis’s On the Edge of Gone (2016). The first section of this dissertation focuses on disability, illness, industry, and environmental health to consider how critics can discuss disability and environmental health in conjunction without returning to a medical model in which the term ‘disability’ often designates how closely bodies visibly conform or deviate from definitions of the normal body.

  • RESET AUSTRALIA RESEARCH MEMO Anti-Vaccination & Vaccine Hesitant Narratives Intensify in Australian Facebook Groups Part 1
    RESET AUSTRALIA RESEARCH MEMO Anti-vaccination & vaccine hesitant narratives intensify in Australian Facebook Groups Part 1: Introduction ‘Anti-vaxx’ and vaccine hesitant content is both easily accessible on the leading social media platforms in Australia and on the rise. Controversy around leading public figures such as Pete Evans and Craig Kelly spreading false and misleading information related to the pandemic have been covered widely. However, this report demonstrates that national pro-vaccine campaigns are being undermined by online disinformation and misinformation proliferating in Facebook groups. Facebook groups are highly emotional spaces with dynamics that reflect those of peer-to-peer messaging apps, where the semi-closed nature and coming together around shared interest encourages members to express their opinion. These groups are designed to increase engagement, with group updates giving users a new reason to check the platform regularly therefore increasing the time users interact with the platform and its content. Maintaining engagement is key to Facebook’s business model, as the longer they can keep someone scrolling, the more advertising units they can sell. Facebook has stated that with the growth of private messaging and small groups, they intend to shift the social network more toward ‘community spaces’, with a focus on private groups. This shift in strategy - moving away from the public News Feed to push interactions in private spaces - raises concerns about the level of reliable, factually accurate information circulating in these groups. Part 2: Research Findings As part of Reset Australia’s research we identified and collected data for 13 Public Facebook Groups between January 2020 - March 2021.

DESCRIPTION What would it mean to consider we're designed to live extraordinary lives of self-healing, longevity and deep intuition? Is it possible that the advanced awareness achieved by monks, nuns and mystics - considered rare in the past - is actually meant to be a normal part of our daily lives? Human by Design explains that we no longer need to ask these questions as 'What if...?' Recent discoveries provide new ways of thinking of ourselves: our origin, our capabilities and our limits, and questions Darwin's theories on human nature. The extraordinary abilities described in this book have been with us from our beginning; rather than evolutionary add-ons, they appear to be inherent in our being. This understanding leads to even deeper mysteries: how do we awaken and maximize such awesome abilities in our lives? What role do they play in the world today? Join Gregg Braden as he crosses the traditional boundaries of science and spirituality to answer these very questions and write a new story of who we are.
