bwaber@bookwyrm.social reviewed Against Technoableism by Ashley Shew
A Stirring Examination of the intersection of Disability, Technology, and Society
4 stars
This book combines personal stories and holistic analyses of the discourse around a whole host of disabled communities to convincingly advocate for a reframing of how we conceive of people with disabilities and design technologies that lead to better outcomes. The sections on the issues with framing of disabilities are especially compelling.
There are some broader pontifications against capitalism that are a bit distracting, but overall this is a great, quick read on an important topic. Highly recommend
