What does the disproportional representation of students of color in special education tell us about how education addresses intersecting forms of difference? How do race and disability interlock in the history and the present of education? A panel of scholars will grapple with these questions and engage the audience in a conversation about race and disability, addressing discourses about difference and normality that affect institutional policies and practices.
