Feminist, Queer, Crip
Feminist, Queer, Crip | Alison Kafer
1 post | 1 read | 5 to read
In Feminist, Queer, Crip Alison Kafer imagines a different future for disability and disabled bodies. Challenging the ways in which ideas about the future and time have been deployed in the service of compulsory able-bodiedness and able-mindedness, Kafer rejects the idea of disability as a pre-determined limit. She juxtaposes theories, movements, and identities such as environmental justice, reproductive justice, cyborg theory, transgender politics, and disability that are typically discussed in isolation and envisions new possibilities for crip futures and feminist/queer/crip alliances. This bold book goes against the grain of normalization and promotes a political framework for a more just world.

I really enjoyed this book. It was thought provoking and felt thorough. I also enjoy accademic writing, which is very much is, but it also felt highly conversational. I am not well versed in disabilities studies and am not as familiar with ableism, and I felt like this book helped me really gain a strong understanding. It was also interesting seeing feminist and queer theory combined with disabilities theories. Content warnings for ableism. #LGBTQ
