In the original publication of Roslin (Reference T2021), an error appeared in footnote 109. The error refers to a scholar as “Lydia X. Y. Brown”, however, the correct name is “Lydia X. Z. Brown”. The correct footnote is reproduced in full below:

For example, in 2017, the author (Tara Roslin) attended the Rebellious Lawyering conference where she listened to disability scholar Lydia X. Z. Brown speak on a panel regarding disability in the legal profession. One of the attorneys on the panel was Deaf. A sign language interpreter audibly spoke the words signed by the attorney to the audience. Lydia reminded the audience that the interpreter was not present to accommodate the speaker, rather the interpreter was present to accommodate the audience because most of us did not understand sign language. Lydia’s poignant distinction and reframing demonstrates that it is sometimes our environments that render us disabled rather than any variances in our bodies’ abilities or cognitive processes.

The author apologizes for this error.
