Description
A groundbreaking collection of first-person writing on the modern disability experience, Disability Visibility brings together the voices of activists, authors, lawyers, politicians, artists, and everyday people who are redefining what it means to live with a disability. Edited by MacArthur "Genius Grant" Fellow Alice Wong, this urgent and galvanizing anthology shares perspectives that are often missing from discussions about accessibility. Featuring essays by Harriet McBryde Johnson, s. e. smith, Keah Brown, and Haben Girma, among others, Disability Visibility offers a glimpse into the vast richness and complexity of the disabled experience. The collection includes blog posts, manifestos, eulogies, and testimonies to Congress, highlighting the passions, talents, and everyday lives of this community. This anthology invites readers to question their own assumptions and understandings, while celebrating and documenting disability culture in the now.
