▪︎ “The Anti-Ableist Manifesto” by Tiffany Yu
Light blue graphic highlighting the book “The Anti-Ableist Manifesto” by Tiffany Yu. There is a 3D mock-up hardcover of the book, followed by a short synopsis blurb, which reads as follows: “With contributions from disability advocates, activists, authors, entrepreneurs, scholars, educators, and executives, Yu celebrates the power of stories and lived experiences to foster the proximity, intimacy, and humanity of disability identities that have far too often been “othered” and rendered invisible.”
