This book offers a nuanced way to conceptualise South Asian Muslim
families' experiences of disability within the UK. The book adopts
an intersectional lens to engage with personal narratives on
mothering disabled children, negotiating home-school relationships,
and developing familiarity with the complex special education
system. The author calls for a re-envisioning of special education
and disability studies literature from its currently overwhelmingly
White middle-class discourse, to one that espouses multi-ethnic and
multi-faith perspectives. The book positions minoritised mothers at
the forefront of the home-school relationship, who navigate the UK
special education system amidst intersecting social inequalities.
The author proposes that schools and both formal and informal
institutions reformulate their roles in facilitating true inclusion
for minoritised disabled families at an epistemic and systemic
level.
