    • We see, we hear, we stand, we voice. But is that what makes us human?
      We do not yet know what a body can do. 

      Contention I: Ablenationalist Imaginaries  

      Listen to The Newspaper “National Yemen’s” view of the status quo in 2011. 

      National Yemen 2011 [“Yemeni’s Handicapped By Poor Care, War Lack Aid,” National Yemen, January, 2011, JP Miller]

      How should we respond?
      USAID is framing assistance to Disabled Organizations (DPOs) through a medical model—This stigmatizes the disabled as deviant bodies in need of a Cure 

      Albert 2004 [“Is disability really on the development agenda?  A review of official disability policies of the major governmental and international development agencies,” Bill Albert, September 2004  Produced   Produced for the Disability Knowledge and Research programme, JP Miller]

      USAID’s Medical-Humanitarian frame is demonstrated by this policy-maker’s description of The Yemen Association of Landmine Survivors 

      Freeman 2010 [Laurie, Foreign Affairs Officer for State Dept “Yemen: U.S. Effort Helps Landmine Survivors Realize a Better Tomorrow,” March, 2010 blog.state.gov, JP Miller]

      Assistance and Media interact to frame Disability as Medical Vulnerability.
      Your decision must instead imagine engagement with disabled organizations through the lens of experiment and policy alliance.

      Goggin 2009 [Goggin, G., Disability, Media, and the Politics of Vulnerability, Asia Pacific Media Educator, 19, 2009, 1-13. JP Miller]

      This Ablenationalist framework projects vulnerability as coming from outside the self—Vacillating between humanitarian assistance and imperial wars of extermination.

      Soldatic 2006 [“Disability and Development: A Critical Southern Standpoint on Able-Bodied Masculinity,” Karen Soldatic and Janaka Biyanwila, Graduate School of Education; Organisational and Labour Studies; University of Western Australia, TASA Conference 2006, University of Western Australia & Murdoch University, 4-7 December 2006, JP Miller]

      Our emotional-ethical complicities pre-determine what we think we can know.
      Catastrophic imaginaries erase the complexities of lived reality—
      Reducing Middle East geopolitics to unaccountable violence.

      Morrissey 2011 [John Morrissey, , Department of Geography, National University of Ireland, “Architects of Empire: The Military–Strategic Studies Complex and the Scripting of US National Security” Antipode Vol. 43, pp 435–470]

      united states federal government should substantially increase media accessibility tools to disability organizations in yemen 

      Contention II: Complex Affinities 

      Our account risks over-simplifying the complexities of disability in Yemen. 

      Can the critique of Ablenationalism account for Abu-Habib’s story? 

      Rousso 2003 [Gender and Education for All: The Leap to Equality Education for All: a gender and disability perspective Harilyn Rousso 2003, JP Miller & kirk]

      Grut & Ingstad 2006 [“This is my life – Living with a disability in Yemen: A Qualitative Study,” Lisbet Grut & Benedicte Ingstad, 2006, Sintef Health Research Report, JP Miller]

      Academic debates must MAP the nuances of disabled lives against aid policy and systems of oppression—Refusing Ablenationalist scholarship framed as the avoidance of catastrophe

      Snyder & Mitchell 2010 [Introduction: Ablenationalism and the Geo-Politics of Disability Sharon L. Snyder David T. Mitchell Journal of Literary & Cultural Disability Studies, Volume 4, Number 2, 2010, pp. 113-125, JP Miller]

      These maps of “civil society” and the “state” emerge through complex histories of truth and power

      Refuse DPO policy framed as the reduction of vulnerability.
      Instead play off ambivalent experiences caught between social suffering and empowerment—Forming connections amidst fragile moments of communication

      Kim 2011 ['Heaven for disabled people': nationalism and international human rights imagery,’ Eunjung Kim, Gender and Women's Studies, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, USA. Online publication date: 17 January 2011, JP Miller]

      Yemen offers a key site for political action—
      Media assistance provides local DPOs with tools to expand their influence in aid planning processes

      Turmusani 2005 [Majid Turmusani (Researcher specializing in disability and development issues. Disability World Issue no. 26 Decemeber - February 2005, JP Miller]

      We do NOT have a master plan to solve the “problem” of disability in Yemen - But disengagement from USAID whitewashes your complicity by locking-in frames of Medicalization and development.

      This is NOT a plan to not “quote unquote SOLVE” disability, and policy-making does not occur in a vaccum.

       

      Kim cautions us that

      attention should be paid to self-representations of everyday experiences and struggles of disabled women and men in the contexts of their relationships with other minorities beyond being a symbol of the quality of their society. A transnational approach to the human rights of people with disabilities should resist static and timeless generalizations about nation states solely based on their policy implementations; instead make connections among diverse, imaginative, conflicting, and ambiguous self-representations of disabled people around the world*

       

      Frame assistance as an on-going process of thinking-feeling-imagining—Plan is a tool allowing play between ambivalent sensations of disability, vulnerability, and empowerment.

      because it is unable to account for the broader context, including other media messages and audience habitus, in which people engage with media

      ….

      long tradition of regarding the masses as vulnerable to being influenced, or duped, that is now well contested (Blackman and Walkerdine 2001; Gauntlett 2005). I would agree with this argument, and add also that while this tendency has been heavily contested in media theory, it still appears to hold sway when it comes to particular groups. What emerges from their analysis is a glimpse of how two problematic, yet still highly influential, models interact: the medical model of disability and the effects model of media, and its reception. Hence my concern that people with disability are still assumed to come under the mantle of the ‘vulnerable’; when, as Holland et al. convincingly show, the vulnerable have agencies, voices, perspective, and some power also — but too often this is systematically ignored.*

      While significant differences in ability are very real, Politics must dwell on its own in-ability to account for Contradictory Experiences Suppressed by Status Quo Democracy Assistance.
