A review by ceilingghostreads
Disability Visibility: First-Person Stories from the Twenty-First Century by Alice Wong

emotional hopeful informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

This is one of my favorites books to have read. It's a series of essays discussing the intersections of disability and the experiences of many different people. It also speaks about the beauty, hope, and love that is the disabled community.
Although every essay is important and incredible, some of my personal favourite essays were: The Isolation of Being Deaf in Prison, How to Make a Paper Crane From Rage, Six Ways of Looking at Crip Time, and the Beauty of Spaces Created by and for Disabled People.
That being said the list is so long and I had to cut out many to make this readable.
Most chapters have content warnings before you begin them so you know what you can or can't handle!
This book is the heart and soul of Disability Justice.
Whether Disabled or not everyone should read this. I really wish this book were longer but this was an incredible experience and I know I'll truly return to this book again and again.
