요약Institutions of "imperialist white supremacist capitalist patriarchy" (hooks) dismiss journaling as a frivolous activity; seldom is it recognized as a practice of survival and resistance by marginalized writers. This dissertation investigates journaling as a practice of disability justice by showing how disabled journalers write to claim their stories and futures in contexts of systemic oppression. The narratives in this study come from 95 qualitative survey responses and 19 semi-structured interviews with writers who identify as having physical disabilities, chronic illness, mental illness, and/or other disabilities. My project makes the powerful roles of journaling visible to educators and broader audiences by showing how disabled writers crip traditional formats into practices of radical self-care (Lorde). Drawing on interviews and participant journal pages, with survey responses as contextualizing data, I describe how journals become tools of survival and catalysts for activism. Moving beyond the humanities' traditional treatment of journals as historical artifacts, I share how contemporary disabled writers use journals for making daily life accessible, creating community, and dreaming more just futures. My goal is to show how the practices of disabled journalers can inform literacy pedagogies and movements for social justice. This dissertation contributes to English studies by investigating how disabled writers create their own multimodal writing systems outside formal classroom settings, challenging the traditional belief that institutional authorities know what is "best" for disabled people. The project also contributes to critical disability studies by illuminating the powerful connections between personal writing practices, disabled survival, and movement-building. I contextualize my contributions within the increased public and academic interest in journaling that has unfolded throughout the pandemic, investigating how and why the seemingly everyday activity of journaling takes on personal, social, and spiritual significance.The majority of my study participants are multiply marginalized women and nonbinary writers. Using feminist disability studies as an intersectional methodology, the core focus of my study is their use of journaling to survive and claim their stories within systems that treat them as disposable. Writers in this study journal to understand their experiences of chronic illness and mental illness, often sharing writing with healthcare providers or teachers to gain agency within dehumanizing settings. I center the stories of participants who journal to make meaning from stories of misogyny, domestic violence, child abuse, medical abuse, ableism, and homophobia. For multiply marginalized disabled writers, journaling becomes a form of counterstory (Martinez). Within the context of the pandemic and the Movements for Black Lives, case studies of activist writers show the linkages between journaling, disability experiences, and writers' contributions to healthcare and education reform.Challenging the emphasis on suffering in popular narratives about disability (Kafer), my dissertation highlights joy in the journaling experiences of disabled writers. I aim to show how writing can further disability justice-the movement-building practice of celebrating disabled lives and building a radically accessible world where "no body is disposable" ("No Body"). Study participants build these worlds through their journals in endless variety of ways: planning their everyday activities, compiling multilingual family histories, recording video narratives, communicating with loved ones, even drafting letters to their future selves. By sharing my participants' stories and journaling artifacts, I show how they resist the reduction of writing to a measure of intelligence, instead writing as a way of knowing.I draw on work by feminist-of-color disability studies scholars (e.g., Schalk and Kim) and disability justice activists (e.g., Piepzna-Samarasinha) to theorize my study's contributions to literacy education, arguing that the uses of journaling by disabled writers can generate transformative pedagogies. The disability justice movement speaks to the study of journaling because it is deliberately positioned against powerful institutions, just as journals are often unsanctioned and uncontrolled by formal "literacy sponsors" (Brandt). Through my participants' stories, I argue for dismantling what I describe as "pedagogies of cure" aimed at eliminating disability (and difference itself) from educational spaces. The experiences of disabled journalers guide the development of teaching practices across the curriculum for social justice, antiviolence, and freedom. Told in accessible language, the stories in this study show how disabled journalers are dreaming worlds and purposes for writing that dominant American education systems have yet to envision.
