Description
Ashton Applewhite's manifesto against ageism is a powerful call to action. In this lively and deeply researched book, she challenges the myths surrounding late life and argues that ageist stereotypes are damaging and unacceptable. Applewhite shares her own journey from holding ageist beliefs to becoming a pro-aging radical, debunking myths about aging and exploring the roots of ageism in history and its impact on our brains, bodies, and society. She critiques the portrayal of elders as burdens and describes what an all-age-friendly world would look like. This book is a worthwhile read for anyone looking to challenge their assumptions about aging and create a more inclusive and equitable world.
