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

emotional informative sad fast-paced

4.5

If you want a collection of essays that highlight disabled living, I highly recommend it. I've found that I don't know much about disabled life because I'm an abled person in an ableist society. And, I wanted to do something about it so I can properly help a diverse set of populations in my career and personal life. I really enjoyed these essays and how broad they were, although they all talked about ableism and how our society is set up to shunt disabled people to the side. It talks about the intersections of race, sexuality, gender, and class. It really is a great read, although hard to stomach at times. I highly recommend it and plan on having a finished copy so I can revisit it as needed.
