BACKGROUND
Our previous readings and films have been building on one another, so that we are able to open new
dimensions to what it means to be virtuous in the 21st Century. This week we go a step further to
connect the virtue of anger with the aim of becoming a person willing to struggle against their own
oppression.
MATERIALS
Begin by listening to my guided reading of our materials using eli clare’s » Stolen Bodies, Reclaimed
Bodies | Eli Clare and Andrew Pulrang, Response to Crip Camp. I also have notes about critical
thinking. Here are my full notes: Thinking Critically_ Crip Camp with notes (1)(attached below). I
uploaded this lecture to a link , so it is easier for you to speed up, slow down, or watch on different
devices.
Next, review Aristotle’s political philosophy and beliefs about the necessity of a ruling (and ruled)
order. Links: Presuppositions of Aristotle’s Politics (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
