Thank you so much for all your very kind messages and everyone who says they’ve pre-ordered! From today’s Guardian, here’s the first extract of Who Wants Normal? Tomorrow: wise words on disability from some of the legends I’ve interviewed for the book. theguardian.com/world/2025/apr…
Parents of disabled teenagers! I’ve got a very limited number of bookplates (signed stickers you can put in your copy) and limited edition postcards left. Email me (info on bio) with your address and who to dedicate it to and I’d be happy to post it out. First come first serve!
See this important protest happening next wednesday morning about cuts to disability benefits facebook.com/events/s/leeds…

When you write about "systemic barriers" for disabled people & an editor deletes "systemic" with the comment that you should use "neutral" and not "politically charged" language. #ableism is systemic and never neutral. #AcademicTwitter #Disability
This month, we partnered with the Society for Medical Anthropology (SMA, @SocMedAnthro) to provide a few resources recommended by SMA Board members to support work relating to medical anthropology. Here are a few recommendations for what to read to this month!

This year I taught an entirely virtual open-access graduate course. Materials were free, speakers were compensated, and students were in attendance from all over the WORLD. On-line learning and community is not only possible but often PREFERABLE. No need to "return to normal."
