On Thursday, April 9 at 6:00 pm in the Harkin Institute (2800 University Ave), Dr. Sarah Jean Barton, Assistant Professor of Occupational Therapy and Theological Ethics at Duke University, will lecture on “’The Work of the People’: Disability and Participation in the Christian Tradition.”
For those wishing to attend the lecture virtually, please sign on here at least five minutes in advance: https://drake-edu.zoom.us/j/89204347295.
Dr. Barton’s talk will explore how theologies and practices of public Christian worship – liturgy – both challenge and provide creative alternatives to typical characterizations of work (e.g. individuality, efficiency, and hypercognitivity) that marginalize disabled communities.
