arrowhead's review against another edition
4.5
There's just so much to love about this book. My favourite parts were when Leah was talking about the concept of crip doulas, how abled people respond to chronic illness, and long/short form communication (as an autistic person, YES). This book in general also made me feel really hopeful and inspired about navigating a queer/transphobic, racist, and ableist world, as a white queer& trans disabled person.

“Disability is not a catastrophe to me. It's just a fact of life.”
despite it not fully being theory-based or some parts as fleshed out as i wish it was, this book was still... wow. this book was beautiful, incredible, meaningful and very impactful. it contains in-depth, subtle, and very much needed conversations about disability justice, and it demonstrates interconnected disability justice is.
i highly recommend this to anyone who wants to learn a bit more about disability justice.
