All of us, even the so-called normal, move in and out of states of ability and disability every day. It's our strengths, weaknesses, eccentricities and differences that define our humanity.

Jonathan Mooney, author

Introduction

We all move through the world conscious of the different meanings society projects onto us through gender, race, class, and ability.

While activists from the feminist movement and the civil rights movement are celebrated in books and media, many people are still unaware of the successes of the disability justice movement.

By platforming the personal stories of a wide range of people with disabilities, the New York Times Disability column changed how many readers understood the experience of living in an ableist world.

Edited by disability scholar Rosemarie Garland-Thomson and New York Times opinion editor Peter Catapano, About Us brings us some of the most powerful essays from this series.
