THE ANTI-ABLEIST MANIFESTO Smashing Stereotypes, Forging Change, and Building a Disability-Inclusive World

Tiffany Yu invites listeners to join her in advocating for a more accessible society for disabled people. When she was just 9 years old, Yu was in a car accident that permanently paralyzed her arm and gave her PTSD. Later, she founded the disability advocacy organization Diversability and gave a TedX Talk about how to create more disability- inclusive work environments. Using a combination of personal experience and research, Yu examines topics like language, microaggressions, and the importance of creating more inclusive events. Yu's performance matches the tone of her prose well. Her voice is often warm, inviting, and kind. When pointing out ableist behaviors and systemic issues, her voice is appropriately firm and resolute. K.D.W. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2024]
