Disability Visibility: First-Person Stories from the Twenty-First Century by Alice Wong

challenging emotional informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.0

I really enjoyed hearing about a variety of disabilities, specifically first-person accounts. There were some disabilities in this book that I hadn't even considered, which is why books like this are so important: so individuals can become more educated and aware. This book should be required reading in school.

A pleasant surprise while reading this book is that I found some validation of my own. I have spent years dealing with impostor syndrome surrounding some of my own disabilities, especially since they are not considered disabilities by all individuals. This book really helped me realize that my disabilities are not only real, but valid. I want to help bring more awareness to both visible and invisible disabilities. We [individuals with disabilities] deserve that.
