Glad to know about all of Sins Invalid's work and ethos. The writing style was a little weird for me at times, but registers as heartfelt.

While at times a heavy read, CRIP KINSHIP by Shayda Kafai never felt inaccessible or overy dense -- particularly for those (like me) not terribly familiar with Disability Justice, or the intersection of activim and arts. As an educator, I am more familiary with the Disability Rights movement. I appreciate how CRIP KINSHIP is grounded in examples from the Sins Invalid project in San Diego, as well as the extensive bibliography which is a good starting point for those interested in learning more about Disability Justice, feminism, abelism and the intersections with racism, classism and more.

Book was not what I expected and I was holding that against it. Maybe I'll revisit when I can actually give it a fair chance.

Great book, I feel like I may have been using the term disability justice incorrectly this entire time
