Abstract:
For many disabled people, violence can become an unwanted, yet ordinary part of everyday life. Often, these crimes are attributed to understandings of disabled people as vulnerable and largely, passive victims. Attending to the aims of this special issue, this paper aims to dismantle these stereotypes and attend to the unique ways that disabled people can resist and respond to hate crime through creative and collaborative research practices. Building upon this, I argue that there is a pressing need for hate studies researchers to work \"with\" and not \"on\" those who have experienced targeted violence. Working in this way builds upon long-standing efforts of disabled activists and disabilities studies researchers to challenge reductive research practices by working in more collective and inclusive ways. To demonstrate this, I reflect upon a project working in partnership with disabled people to create a disability hate crime toolkit. The toolkit, now published, shares accessible and informative resources that can be used to raise awareness about disability hate crime. While the focus of this paper is disability, I consider methods of collaboration, co-production and participation that can be drawn upon by researchers to respond to hate crime and interpersonal violence more broadly.
摘要:
对于许多残疾人来说,暴力可以成为不想要的,然而日常生活的普通部分。通常,这些罪行归因于对残疾人脆弱的理解,被动受害者关注本期特刊的宗旨,本文旨在消除这些陈规定型观念,并通过创造性和合作研究实践,关注残疾人抵制和应对仇恨犯罪的独特方式。在此基础上,我认为,仇恨研究人员迫切需要“与”而不是“与”那些经历过针对性暴力的人一起工作。以这种方式工作建立在残疾人活动家和残疾人研究研究人员的长期努力基础上,通过以更集体和更具包容性的方式工作来挑战还原性研究实践。为了证明这一点,我反思了一个与残疾人合作创建残疾人仇恨犯罪工具包的项目。工具包,现在出版,共享可访问和信息资源,可用于提高对残疾仇恨犯罪的认识。虽然本文的重点是残疾,我考虑合作的方法,研究人员可以利用的共同制作和参与,以更广泛地应对仇恨犯罪和人际暴力。
