Reviews"It can be difficult to know how to respond to ableism when one encounters it in the wild, but Tiffany Yu's The Anti-Ableist Manifesto offers a timely, practical, and generous field guide. It's a clear, comprehensive, and accessible instruction manual for anyone who cares about disability (and, even more crucially, for those who don't)."-- Andrew Leland, author of Pulitzer Prize-finalist The Country of the Blind, "Tiffany Yu's The Anti-Ableist Manifesto is a powerful journey, merging personal narratives with collective insights to confront and dismantle ableism. As someone deeply immersed in the study of prejudice, including the often-overlooked discrimination faced by people with disabilities, I find that Yu delivers a timely and indispensable guide for our times." -- Amy Cuddy, New York Times Bestselling Author of Presence, "Tiffany Yu's The Anti-Ableist Manifesto is a powerful journey, merging personal narratives with collective insights to confront and dismantle ableism. As someone deeply immersed in the study of prejudice, including the often-overlooked discrimination faced by people with disabilities, I find that Yu delivers a timely and indispensable guide." -- Amy Cuddy, New York Times Bestselling Author of Presence, "Tiffany Yu's The Anti-Ableist Manifesto is brilliantly written and very well researched! It provides a much-needed framework for any discussion of Ableism and methods for defeating this deeply harmful practice of supremacism. Credibility comes from Yu's lived experience with disability and her powerful way of expressing its harm and how to stop it."-- John D. Kemp, cofounder of the American Association of People with Disabilities, author of Disability Friendly: How to Move from Clueless to Inclusive, "Tiffany Yu has been a wonderful resource for me over the years and for so many who are looking to understand and end ableism in order to contribute to a more inclusive and equitable world. This book is a must-read!"-- Amy Purdy, New York Times bestselling author of On My Own Two Feet and 3x Paralympic Medalist, "For the first time, we have a comprehensive guide outlining the steps to transform a world entrenched in ableism. Tiffany Yu has given us that gift."-- Sasha Hamdani, MD, Board-Certified Psychiatrist and author of Self-Care for People with ADHD, "Tiffany Yu just made my life a lot easier with this thorough, yet approachable, guide to disability and ableism. From now on, when someone asks me how to become a better disability ally, I'm simply going to hand them this book. Our world has needed a book like this for a long time."-- Shane Burcaw, author of Laughing at My Nightmare, "Tiffany Yu guides readers through a cross-disability exploration of ableism in a warm, easy-to-read style. Her book is a precious gift for new allies and experienced advocates alike." -- Haben Girma, bestselling author of Haben: The Deafblind Woman Who Conquered Harvard Law, " The Anti-Ableist Manifesto is a vital resource that will shape how we understand and confront ableism. This book is essential reading for anyone committed to equity, inclusion, and meaningful allyship. I'll be using it as a reference for years to come."-- Liz Plank, international bestselling author of For the Love of Men, "Wow--I wish this book had existed when I became disabled....It would have made my journey as a disabled person, as well as my family and my family, much smoother." -- Meg Fozzard, Journalist and Producer, including of the VR experience "Cripping Up"

SynopsisTiffany Yu takes readers on a revelatory examination of disability--how to unpack biases and build an inclusive and accessible world. As the Asian American daughter of immigrants, living with PTSD, and sustaining a permanent arm injury at age nine, Tiffany Yu is well aware of the intersections of identity that affect us all. She navigated the male-dominated world of corporate finance as an investment banker at Goldman Sachs before founding Diversability, an award-winning community business run by disabled people building disability pride, power, and leadership, and creating the viral Anti-Ableism series on TikTok. Organized from personal to professional, domestic to political, Me to We to Us , The Anti-Ableist Manifesto frames context for conversations, breaks down the language of ableism, identifies microaggressions, and offers actions that lead to authentic allyship. - How do we remove ableist language from our daily vocabulary? - How do we create inclusive events? - What are the advantages of hiring disabled employees, and what market opportunities are we missing out on when we don't consider disabled consumers? With contributions from disability advocates, activists, authors, entrepreneurs, scholars, educators, and executives, Yu celebrates the power of stories and lived experiences to foster the proximity, intimacy, and humanity of disability identities that have far too often been "othered" and rendered invisible., Tiffany Yu takes readers on a revelatory examination of disability--how to unpack biases and build an inclusive and accessible world.
