Rights Gone Wrong: How Law Corrupts the Struggle for Equality by Richard Thompson Ford

reflective medium-paced

To be fair, a lot of shit has gone down since this was published. Regardless, I found this to be very under-researched and Under-developed from the beginning. Considering I do a lot of work with policy on IDEA, it didn't take long for me to recognize the failure of Ford to research anything against his beliefs. (FYI a big part of IDEA is service provision in natural environments, therefore any differential treatment that isn't necessary due to a child's developmental difference is genuinely against the law...) but I digress!

In an age where information is shared constantly, and people are getting facts from uninformed sources, I'm kind of sad I even read this. And sad that other people probably will too.
