sanguinity: woodcut by M.C. Escher, "Snakes" (Default)
[personal profile] sanguinity

As promised, here is the ability, disability, and ableism recommendations post.

  • Both books and blogs are eligible for this post.

  • As always, the authors of the books or blogs must be poc/chromatic, and should also be people with disabilities or non-normative abilities. (Note, not all people with non-normative abilities identify as disabled.) Disabilities and non-normative abilities include, but are not limited to: physical disabilities, non-normative body structure or function, chronic illnesses, mental illnesses, and non-neurotypicality.

  • Recommended books and blogs do not have to be about ability, disability, or ableism. There are far more ways for one's identify to inform one's writing than to explicitly discuss it in non-fiction, but even if one's identity didn't inform one's writing, it would still be worth noting that authors of color include authors with disabilities and non-normative abilities.


Anonymous commenting is still turned off, but those without LJ logins can comment with OpenID, Facebook, Twitter, or Google logins, or you can email me your recommendations (this username at gmail) and I'll add your recs manually.
