Abstract

As a student, I admire Sami Schalk’s clarity and hopes around those from whom she wrote this book. Black Disability Politics is not written for or about me, a white crip queer student. Schalk scribes this excellent historical, contextual, and future-oriented book for black disabled readers, inviting them to settle in, hoping to move together slightly closer to collective liberation (3).
