CAST 284 - Disability and Queer Community Health in a Time of PandemicHC ARHU 2 credits Queer and disability communities have historically developed systems for managing limited access to healthcare in times of crisis. From the HIV/AIDS epidemic of the 1980s and 90s to current disparities in healthcare access and treatment, marginalized communities have responded to past and ongoing health crises by creating community networks of care and justice. As we find ourselves in this present moment of a declared worldwide pandemic, the recommendation of “social distancing” creates a new problem for how to imagine care and health justice in already under-serviced communities. This module course will think historically and contemporaneously about care work and public health activism in a time of crisis to (re)imagine community care and health education during the COVID-19 pandemic. This course is cross-listed with GSFS 284
