A review by achingallover
Exile and Pride: Disability, Queerness, and Liberation by Eli Clare
dark
hopeful
informative
inspiring
reflective
slow-paced
4.5
really appreciated the foreward and preface and afterword, as well as the additional notes Eli Clare added in 2009, so would recommend the 2015 edition
definitely a book i will reread, and have annotated heavily. really important analysis of intersections, of complicated and layered questions, poking at the uncomfortable bits to discover why
"at the jagged edge where self-hatred meets pride"
"in the end i mean deeply honest multi issue politics that will make home possible"
"when do we celebrate, when do we howl with rage, when do we witness and mourn?"
