Brilliant Imperfection: Grappling with Cure | 
My #currentread is a deep dive into our concept of "cure". What kinds of existing are defined as needing to be cured? Which communities are hoping for cure, and which communities want acceptance and affirmation rather than cure? Thank goodness we have Eli Clare's beautiful brain to examine it all. #queerbooks #transbooks #disabilitybooks
pickThis was possibly the best book I've read yet all year. Fascinating mosaic inspired look at cute in its various aspects.
Who has two thumbs and completely missed the pub date of Eli Clare's new book??? 👈👈(it's me.)
Thankfully I came across this awesome review! It's now ordered and on its way to my eyeballs. Check the review out here: https://bitchmedia.org/article/disability-not-deficit-and-other-truths-ableist-w...
pickAble-bodied people, forget everything you think you believe about health and cure and disability politics, and listen to Eli Clare. He covers politics, history, ethics, ableism, gender identity, and more; with all the messy, contradictory intersections that cannot be ignored. His prose is dazzling, the way he states his points so beautiful, that this feels like a mix of nonfiction and poetry. Cannot recommend highly enough!
I've fallen off the #photoadaynov2016 but I couldn't resist jumping back in for #disabilities because I'm currently reading the amazing Brilliant Imperfections by Eli Clare who takes a fascinating and important critical stance on the way that disability is most commonly framed. #transbooks #queerbooks #disabilitybooks
I'm so excited to start this one! Thanks to #netgalley! I have really enjoyed Clare's previous work - he is such a powerhouse on queer issues, trans issues, and disability issues. #transbooks #queerbooks #disabilitybooks
