What was it like to be disabled before curb cuts and accessible restrooms? How did disabled people access the world? Why is it important to care? In observance of Diversability Month, Public Historian Nicole Belolan will offer facts and evidence during โDisabilities Then, Disabilities Nowโ at the Ocean County Library Lacey Branch, 6:30 PM Tuesday, October 15.
Disability affects everyone at some point in life. Exploring artifacts from the historianโs collection, youโll gain insight about the meaning of being disabled in the 18th and 19th-centuries and youโll achieve awareness of disability activism and justice in America today.
South Jersey-based Nicole Belolan is a consulting public historian and independent scholar. Her expertise has been called on for projects such as oral history, collections management, and disability history interpretation. She holds a seat on the Board of the Disability History Association and occasionally serves as an adjunct instructor.
Nicole regularly stages workshops about access and inclusion for people with disabilities in public history and humanities settings. Her written works have appeared in venues including Winterthur Portfolio and The Inclusive Historianโs Handbook.
