The anti-ableist manifesto : smashing stereotypes, forging change, and building a disability-inclusive world / by Yu, Tiffany,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."The "Anti-Ableist Manifesto" defines ableism as discrimination in favor of non-disabled people and helps readers understand that ending discrimination begins with self-reflection. Tiffany 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. As the Asian American daughter of immigrants, living with PTSD and a permanent arm injury sustained at age nine, Yu is well aware of the intersections of identity that affect us all. She navigated the male-dominated world of corporate finance as an investment banker at Goldman Sachs before founding Diversability, an award-winning community business run by disabled people building disability pride, power, and leadership. Organized from the personal to the professional, the domestic to the political, the Me to the We to the Us, The "Anti-Ableist Manifesto" frames context for conversations, breaks down the language of ableism, identifies microaggressions, and proposes real actions that lead to genuine and authentic allyship: - How do we remove ableist language from our daily vocabulary? - What are the advantages of hiring disabled employees? - How do we create inclusive events? - What market opportunity are we missing out on when we don't consider disabled consumers?
