Kingsley (1), a double amputee, railroader, printer, and immigrant who rose to prominence in the Socialist Party of Canada. They combine legal history, labor history, and critical disability theory to describe his political life. He joined the Socialist Labor Party in California and fought for free speech and ran for the US House of Representatives; moved to Canada and worked as a fishmonger and printer; became a leading member of the Socialist Party of Canada and edited its newspaper, the Western Clarion; and ran for the House of Commons and Legislative Assemblies of Alberta and British Columbia. They show how tort law, immigration law, and national security law regulated and created barriers in his life, while also providing him with opportunities.
