Disability Pride: Dispatches from a Post-ADA World
by Ben Mattlin Author
This in-depth look at the disability community explores how activism, representation, and attitudes have evolved since the Americans with Disabilities Act. Through interviews and reportage, it highlights a new generation shaping the future, from autistic self-advocacy to the rise of disability culture in social media, fashion, and entertainment. It also examines ongoing challenges, including systemic ableism in healthcare, institutionalization, and exploitative labor practices. The erasure of nonwhite and LGBTQIA+ voices within the movement is addressed, leading to the rise of Disability Justice. While exposing these injustices, it also showcases the resilience of disabled individuals who continue to fight for equality and recognition. This portrait of a diverse and dynamic community offers a fresh perspective on inclusion and social change.
