All Our Families: Disability Lineage and the Future of Kinship by Jennifer Natalya Fink
emotional
hopeful
fast-paced
3.5
I really wanted this to be a 5-star read, but it feels very introductory compared to the level of scholarship and writing that I wanted. It has a lot of heart and I absolutely agree about the disabled ancestry I long to know/to have not had erased from my lineage, as well as the future disabled ancestry I want to foster. But this could've been a really good personal memoir OR a really good set of research had the author committed more.
Moderate: Ableism
Mentions eugenics.
