Sobre este áudio
Disabled young people will be proud to see themselves reflected in this hopeful, compelling, and insightful essay collection, adapted for young adults from the critically acclaimed adult book Disability Visibility: First Person Stories from the Twenty-First Century that "sheds light on the experience of life as an individual with disabilities, as told by none other than authors with these life experiences" (Chicago Tribune, "Best books published in summer 2020" (Vintage/Knopf Doubleday edition)).
The eye-opening essays in Disability Visibility, all written by disabled people, offer keen insight into the complex and rich disability experience, examining life's ableism and inequality, its challenges and losses, and celebrating its wisdom, passion, and joy.
The accounts in this collection, adapted for audio, ask listeners to think about disabled people not as individuals who need to be “fixed”, but as members of a community with its own history, culture, and movements. They offer diverse perspectives that speak to past, present, and future generations. It is essential listening for all.
This audiobook contains unabridged selections from Disability Visibility (Adapted for Young Adults).
