Demystifying Disability: What to Know, What to Say, and How to be an Ally

"If you’re like me, fear of causing offense or saying the wrong thing can prevent me from saying anything at all – which only perpetuates ignorance, or even harm. But the disability community is huge and extremely diverse and complex. Where to begin? I suggest starting with Emily Ladau’s Demystifying Disability, a fantastic primer for improving your understanding of disability and ableism. This book will give you the history, ideas, language, etiquette and practical tools you need to begin your journey to becoming a more knowledgeable and aware ally, along with resources for where to go next."
