Katherine Anderson Howell: Disability and Fandom, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

Disability and Fandom examines how key fandom platforms--including cons, Tumblr, Archive of Our Own, Instagram, Reddit, and TikTok--set up user interfaces that may mask their true values, potentially decreasing access and creating a system by which disability remains stigmatized. It includes case studies of fan fiction, disability influencers, anti-fans, trolls, and celebrities. The argument is made for incorporating disability into the analytical tools of fandom so that we may begin with better tools and better questions.
