Stories from the Intersection of LGBTQIA+ Identity and Disability

Stöd

’In Our Words is a book I wish had been available when I was a teenager, grappling with issues of sexuality and disability.’Dr Alastair Mc Ewin AM, Former Commissioner, Disability Royal Commission; Former Disability Discrimination Commissioner


What can we learn from the lived experiences of Disabled people identifying as LGBTQIA+?


Through a series of personal reflections, In Our Words follows the difficult journeys of a number of Queer and Disabled authors from coming out to arriving at a place of positive identity.


This empowering collection discusses the discrimination and hatred faced by the Queer and Disabled community, and shares how these barriers can be overcome to arrive at a place of self-acceptance and love. Through examples, this book aims to promote a sense of unity and pride.


Through tales of self-reflection, insight, and discovery, this book is ideal reading for students of Disability Studies, LGBTQIA+ Studies, Social Work, and Gender Studies as well as Queer Disabled folk.
