This groundbreaking memoir offers a glimpse into an activist's journey to finding and cultivating community and the continued fight for disability justice, from the founder and director of the Disability Visibility Project

In Chinese culture, the tiger is deeply revered for its confidence, passion, ambition, and ferocity. That same fighting spirit resides in Alice Wong.

Drawing on a collection of original essays, previously published work, conversations, graphics, photos, commissioned art by disabled and Asian American artists, and more, Alice uses her unique talent to share an impressionistic scrapbook of her life as an Asian American disabled activist, community organizer, media maker, and dreamer. From her love of food and pop culture to her unwavering commitment to dismantling systemic ableism, Alice shares her thoughts on creativity, access, power, care, the pandemic, mortality, and the future. As a self-described disabled oracle, Alice traces her origins, tells her story, and creates a space for disabled people to be in conversation with one another and the world. Filled with incisive wit, joy, and rage, Wong’s Year of the Tiger will galvanize listeners with big cat energy.

* This audiobook includes a downloadable PDF containing photographs, illustrations and a crossword puzzle from the printed book.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A guide to becoming a more compassionate human being.

Commenté au Canada 🇨🇦 le 7 novembre 2022

This is a magnificent book for sharing what it's like to navigate the world when your illness dominates your life.

All that we do not see or feel-- the micro and macro barriers that must be navigated just to get by, the indignities faced when able bodied people fail to extend kindness towards others...reading about them and putting yourself in the shoes of a disabled person will alter your perspective and make you an ally for the physically challenged.

A Must Read for anyone interested in Disability Rights and Culture

Commenté aux États-Unis 🇺🇸 le 14 octobre 2022

I am so happy my friend, colleague and amazing person, Alice Wong, published this memoir. It’s not an easy read because while Alice knows how to have fun she also attacks subjects as diverse as education, work, access, staying alive, and eating as an disabled activist Asian American woman of color.
This might be the golden age of disability activist memoirs. This is different than inspirational disability memoirs. While inspiration might be one result of many of these memoirs--from Haben Girma’s Haben: The Deafblind Woman Who Conquered Harvard Law to Riva Lehrer’s Golem Girl: A Memoir to Nina G’s, Stutterer Interrupted: The Comedian Who Almost Didn’t Happen to Jan Grue’s I Live a Life Like Yours: A Memoir, and many more—it is not a primary goal. In Alice’s case she might say “F U” to be labeled as an inspiration. She doesn’t pull punches and she didn’t put out a typical memoir. We learn a lot about Alice but not in a linear fashion. Some of the book is reprinted essays, many from her Disability Visibility Project blog. Alice became a well-deserved superstar in the Disability Rights and Culture worlds with this project, begun in 2015 to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act. She partnered with StoryCorps to tell stories from the disability rights world. Some of the essays in this book come from the StoryCorps interviews. Much of the book revolves around the Coronavirus pandemic and how it has impacted the lives (and deaths) of individuals with disabilities, including those like Alice who use technology, such as a non-invasive ventilator, to breathe and survive. People with disabilities have been creating and figuring out ways to thrive and survive living and working at home for many years. That makes some of us “oracles” and Alice describes why in several chapters.
This memoir is full of information, reflection, interviews, drawings, food, and cats, among much more. Alice, like the rest of us, is a complicated and complex individual. Her goal, she often writes, is supporting other people, especially disabled people of color, to get the word about their own life and experiences, out into the world. This memoir is one way of doing that because she shares the spotlight of this book highlighting the lives and work of many others.
Highly recommended for anyone interested in Disability Rights and Culture.

This is not your sad “pity me” disability story this is laugh-til-you-cry. I’m particularly glad I got the paperback for the cartoons (cats!) and the crossword. Essential reading for all but especially the community. Alice is on fire with the publishing, see Disability Visibility Project, and more are coming soon! Also follow her on socials, you won’t regret it. (Watch the Tiger Talks promoting this book! Give to the gfm so she can stay here with us in the community as her success blows up! *not a paid or coerced endorsement* A disability leader of our era, as much as anyone should live where she chooses. But the book? Amazing.

Sarcastic, creative, rageful

Commenté aux États-Unis 🇺🇸 le 28 janvier 2023

Alice Wong’s memoir is a mix of essays, articles, interviews, text conversations, social media posts, pictures, and many other things. They draw a picture of a person who loves cats, snacks, sci-fi, and her friends and family. She is brutally honest, unapologetic, and incredibly funny. She talks about things that will probably make a lot of people uncomfortable. You should read this anyway.

I appreciate this book so much for educating yourself on the disabled community! I had no idea about many things; and my ableism definitely showed! But I’m so thankful to Alice for this beautiful book and for educating me!
