In the first year of the What Sorts of People Should There Be? blog, those who came to form the Eugenics Archives team decided to blog systematically on talks from an important conference. The Thinking in Action series of thirteen posts and commentaries combined podcasts from a the talks held at the Cognitive Disability conference in NYC in September 2008 with reflective comments from notable academics, philosophers, and people with personal investment or experience with the topics at hand. The idea was to build some classroom resources for discussing views prominent amongst bioethicists and moral philosophers, such as Peter Singer and Jeff McMahan, that have been viewed critically in the disability rights community, and to take up related issues focused on cognitive disability. The whole series of posts is collected here, in reverse chronological order: https://whatsortsofpeople.wordpress.com/2009/02/13/all-wrapped-up-complete-thinking-in-action-series/ .
