Disabled people are the world's largest minority, an estimated 15 percent of the global population. But many of us - disabled and non-disabled alike - don't know how to act, what to say, or how to be an ally to the disability community. This is a friendly handbook on important disability issues you need to know about, including how to appreciate disability history and identity, how to recognize and avoid ableism (discrimination toward disabled people), and how to appropriately think, talk, and ask about disability.
