Mia Mingus On "Crip Solidarity"

Mia Mingus, Leaving Evidence - May 3, 2010

I just mentioned in my last blog that the Stella Young essay Dear 16-year-old Stella is my favorite piece of writing on disability. I think this post by Mia Mingus is now the runner up for me. For those of us with disabilities, it challenges us to be better “crips”. I think it can also help explain to non-disabled people … and disabled people just starting to explore what disability means ... what, exactly, “crop culture” is supposed be.
