Disabled Lives Matter / Abha Khetarpal

This book is an anthology of articles that I have written on disability over a period of ten years. These write ups for are on diverse concerns relating to disability, I know. that such kind of collection of writings are a part of minority. literature, but to bring about inclusion and reach the 2030 agenda everyone must be aware of the various issues that disabled lives face while navigating the adverse conditions.

This anthology includes 56 essays originally published various portals and platforms like Feminism in India, Youth ki Awaz, Medium, Pont of View and SexDis. The essays are organized into the topics of personal life of the author, disability and sexuality, accessibility, ableism, inclusion and health.

I hope my writings would initiate dialogues necessary to bring about desired changes in mindset of the readers which ultimately would lead to breaking the stereotypes around disability.
