"Disabled people have existed for as long as humanity. They have been active parts of every society and liberatory movement. Yet when history is written, disability is often erased or stigmatised. This zine aims to celebrate the lives of disabled feminists. To frame disability not as a shameful individual failure that undermines one’s agency, legitimacy and personhood, but as a neutral characteristic within the natural variation of humanity. Disabled people are the largest and most diverse political minority group. Structural, social and medical discrimination makes becoming disabled more likely if you are black, female, LGBTQIA+, poor, or incarcerated. When many oppressed groups individually sought liberation and equality, they sought to distance themselves from disability, rather than challenging the notion that disability itself justified unequal treatment."--From page [2].
