| Abstract: | Through the lenses of Critical Disability Studies (CDS), Disability Critical Race Theory (DisCrit), and Disability Justice, we analyze how technological advancements have both expanded possibilities for access and perpetuated new forms of exclusion and marginalization. Our analysis of mobile technologies, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and augmented/virtual reality explores the impact of technologies on disabled people's lives, particularly those who are multiple marginalized. We argue for a more nuanced, intersectional approach to technology development that centers disabled voices and experiences, challenging technosolutionist narratives and advocating for truly inclusive innovation. |
