We will be reading Disability Visibility: First-Person Stories from the Twenty-First Century, Edited by Alice Wong
- About this book: Disability Visibility by Alice Wong is a collection of essays by people with disabilities that aims to make disability identities visible and advocate for representation. The book includes a variety of writing styles, such as essays, poetry, interviews, fiction, and podcasts. It features stories from people with a range of disabilities, including those that are visible and invisible. The book also includes stories from people of color, trans, queer, and Indigenous backgrounds. The essays cover a wide range of topics, including relationships, disability activism, social media, and the legal system. The book also explores how disability intersects with other aspects of identity, such as religion.
