Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice by Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha

4.5
Written pre 2020 but still 100% relevant given the ways in which our systems are continuing to dismantle health and safety precautions for the chronically ill. And you're only able-bodied until the day you aren't.
A great read for intersectional disability justice and building community care networks.
