Diwrnod Rhyngwladol Pobl Anabl: Disability: A History of Resistance gan Yr Athro David Turner

// International Day of Disabled People: Disability: A History of Resistance by Professor David

[English description below]

Am Diwrnod Rhyngwladol Anabledd eleni, ymunwch a’r Athro David Turner, artist-ymgyrchydd Delphi Campbell, ac academydd James Patrick Cox am noswaith o archwilio llyfr David, Disability: A History of Resistance.

“Yn ystod adeg sy’n gweld cynnydd yn ableddiaeth, mae ein hanesion yn fwy pwysig nag erioed. Mae Disability: A History of Resistance yn adrodd stori newydd o orffennol Prydain sy’n dathlu protest, gwydnwch a phenderfynoldeb pobl anabl i wrthwynebu rhagfarn ac i ddweud straeon mwy gonest am eu bywydau. Rydw i’n gobeithio bydd hyn yn ysbrydoli pobl i ddarganfod eihun yr hanesion gwerthfawr o anabledd sy’n bodoli o’n gwmpas.”

- Yr Athro David Turner, Is-Cadeirydd Celfyddydau Anabledd Cymru ac awdur Disability: A History of Resistance.

International Day of Disabled People: Disability: A History of Resistance by Professor David

This International Day of Disability, join Professor David Turner, artist-activist Delphi Campbell, and academic James Patrick Cox for an evening of exploration into David’s book, Disability: A History of Resistance.

“At a time when ableism is on the rise, our histories matter more than ever. Disability: A History of Resistance tells a new story of Britain's past which celebrates disabled people's protest, resilience and determination to push back against prejudice and tell truer stories about their lives. I hope it will inspire people to discover for themselves the rich histories of disability that exist all around us.”

- Professor David Turner, DAC Vice Chair and author of Disability: A History of Resistance.

Hosted by Disability Arts Cymru at Chapter Arts Centre.
