Declarations
: This commentary was prepared while the author was under the employ of the University of California, Berkeley and used a university-owned computer. No human subjects review was necessary since the article is commenting on the research of others or drawing upon published historical sources widely available in university libraries, nor was external funding of any sort used in the writing of this commentary.
: The author discloses that as a person who self-identifies as disabled, she has a vested interest in raising awareness of the narratives of mandatory able-bodiedness that permeate the discipline but does not stand to benefit financially from this subject position (except in the usual way of continuing to be in the employ of a university that values participation in publication processes).
