Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice by Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha

emotional informative inspiring reflective

5.0

This book is incredibly written and truly authentic. It’s a pleasure and privilege to hear anything written by someone read in their own voice — this book is a wonderful example of that.

I loved how this book shifts and meanders. How it is both essay, personal stories, poems, love letters, and conversations. To me, this format emphasized the beauty of interdependence and pushed against the idea of what a book must look like.

I digested this book in spurts over the course of several months if I’m honest. I never tuned out once. The concepts discussed aren’t unfamiliar to me, but how they are framed and phrased, reminded me of the work still needed to be done and the true meaning of the work.
