    Sing Fox to Me: An Investigation into the “Use” of Down syndrome in Both the Down Syndrome and Gothic Novel Why are characters with Down syndrome built into the scaffolding of the Down Syndrome novel rather than being represented as individuals with a clear agency and a legitimate, autonomous voice and point of view? And, how might the Australian Gothic novel open up new possibilities for practitioners of modern disability fiction? Sarah Jean Kanake Bachelor of Creative Industries (Creative Writing) First Class Honours, Creative Industries (Creative Writing) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Media, Entertainments and Creative Arts Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology 2014 Sing Fox to Me: An Investigation into the “use” of Down syndrome in both the Down Syndrome and Gothic Novel. Sing Fox to Me: An Investigation into the “use” of Down syndrome in both the Down Syndrome and Gothic Novel. ABSTRACT This project investigates the current borders around and within, what I have in this exegesis termed, “the Down Syndrome novel”, using a close reading analysis of literary texts containing characters with Down syndrome and contextualised by theoretical works drawn from both disability and literary theory. This practice-led thesis introduces and discusses select fictional characters with Down syndrome from numerous genres, revealing them as highly contained, or “boundaried”, spoken for, and generally used for narrative conflict rather than included as individuals with agency and a legitimate, autonomous voice and narrative point of view. The Down Syndrome novel is defined and positioned as sharing a similar space with colonial texts, as both impose “Otherness” and use this otherness to maintain possession, establish order and build boundaries.

    Walk A Mile In Their Shoes A Bullying Report and Prevention Guide for Parents of Children with Special Needs A Bullying Report and Prevention Guide for Parents of Children with Special Needs This important report confirms the presence of a silent epidemic in our schools and “ communities. Hundreds of thousands of children with differences are being subject to humiliation and isolation week in and week out around the country. It is time to bring this problem to light and marshal a call to action to our young people to put an end to it. This report shows us that what you say matters. I hope young leaders around the country will act on it by joining, sharing and leading the Spread the Word to End the Word campaign on March 2, 2011. -Timothy Shriver - Special” Olympics As this report illustrates, bullying - in the form of name-calling, exclusion, “ or violence - is an issue that many individuals with special needs cope with on a daily basis. The resulting humiliation, isolation and pain is something that affects not only these individuals, but also all those around them, including parents, care- givers and teachers. So, I hope that the awareness this report creates, coupled with the valuable suggestions and tips that it offers, leads to an increase in the acceptance and inclusion of individuals with special needs, ultimately putting an end to bullying -Anthony K. Shriver, Founder and Chairman,” Best Buddies International Bullying is every parent’s fear. For parents of children with special needs that fear “ is exacerbated. Very little is available to support these families, which is why Gatepath dedicated resources to raise the level of awareness and include children and youth with special needs in national discussions.

The survey finds that bullying is still a major issue among American teens in the 10 largest metro areas, with 83 percent saying they have been teased or bullied, and 72 percent saying they worry about being bullied by peers. While bullying is a common concern, teens also appear ready to do something about it, with 72 percent saying they would unite as a group to show they are against bullying (e.g. attending an event, joining a club, or social media activities). To help teens stand up against bullying, CustomInk is launching its 4th annual Be Good to Each Other campaign (www.customink.com/stopbullying). Coinciding with the back-to-school season and October’s National Bullying Prevention month, the campaign encourages student groups and others to take a stand for kindness and tolerance by designing and wearing custom bullying prevention t-shirts.

  • Culture, Disability & Television
    Culture, Disability & Television Elvira Psaila Attard, Malta (Europe) Abstract Culture surrounds us in every aspect of our daily lives and has a direct effect on our values, beliefs and interactions with others (Peters 2005). Its value, however, is not simply as a record of what is the expected norm in a given society (Markus & Kityama 1991), but also as a form of expression for human thought and imagination. This paper starts with an overview of the multiple meanings of culture and the various forms in which it may be manifested through cultural representations. It then proceeds to give a brief historical background on the expected roles of people with disabilities within society and how the importance of making the ‘voice’ of people with disabilities heard is conveyed through art and culture, including the Disability Arts Movement. In the paper, it is also argued that although Disability Arts aim to challenge the norms in society and create change, they only reach a select and limited audience. Thus, the paper questions whether more mainstream cultural forms can be used as a tool in giving a more accurate depiction of disability to a larger audience within society. Using current, mainstream English and American television programs, this paper explores whether modern day television programmes are including positive representation of disability, or whether negative stereotypes are still more prevalent. A distinction is made between the presence of people with disabilities in reality series’ and the roles ascribed to disabled characters in fictional television serials and both forms are therefore discussed separately accordingly. The paper also covers the issue of crip drag, and its significance to disability activism, but also questions the notion of what is most offensive- a non- disabled actor playing a disabled character, or a disabled actor who states that he sympathises with people suffering from more severe forms of impairment.

  • Down Syndrome and Self-Esteem: the Media’S Portrayal of Self
    DOWN SYNDROME AND SELF-ESTEEM: THE MEDIA’S PORTRAYAL OF SELF- ESTEEM IN CHARACTERS WHO HAVE DOWN SYNDROME Courtney Gee Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS December 2012 APPROVED: Tracy Everbach, Committee Chair James Mueller, Committee Member Paul Leung, Committee Member Roy Busby, Director of the Frank W. Mayborn Graduate Institute of Journalism Jean Keller, Acting Dean of the Frank W. and Sue Mayborn School of Journalism Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Gee, Courtney. Down Syndrome and Self-esteem: The Media’s Portrayal of Self-esteem in Characters Who Have Down Syndrome. Master of Arts (Journalism), December 2012, 68 pp., references, 51 titles. Representations of people with a developmental disability are virtually not covered in the media. Although there is little coverage of people with developmental disabilities in the media, there are a few entertainment television characters who have Down syndrome and are represented in the media. This study will take a look at the history of how people with disabilities were represented in the media and examine how two television characters with Down syndrome were portrayed on the shows by examining their self-esteem. This study seeks to focus on portrayal of people with Down Syndrome because the physical features that people with Down Syndrome possess are easy to identify. Specifically, the study examines the portrayal of self- esteem in two television characters, Corky Thatcher (Life Goes On) and Becky Faye Jackson (Glee). The researcher will also examine how the portrayal of self-esteem in the two characters is similar or different in people who have Down Syndrome.

His family was poor and he wanted to learn to play the guitar so he locked him self in his room for up to 14 hours a day to listen to 1950 rock albums. When he was 17, he quit school to play in clubs because his family needed money.
