This Is Living Zine Launch! Celebrating 17th Anniversary of the ADA

If you happen to be in the Chicago Loop this week, be sure to stop by the Thompson Center at Clark and Lake for an exhbitit celebrating the 17th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Take home a complimentary copy of my new zine This Is Living, where I recount the adventures of a disability rights activist embedded deep within the social service ghetto.
Also on display- works by artists from the Little City Foundation, Espiranza and sculpture by Steve Handschu. I'll be hanging out for a few hours on the 19th so come by, rock out to the R&B cover band and show your support!

Coming to the pages of TIL this winter: Ernesto shows us how to survive a brain injury with flair, I compile my list of the best disability flicks (films on disability- you do the semantics) of all time- send me your recommendations! Plus, highlights from the kickass disability community to be had online! Notes on all that glitters, twitches, rocks, rolls, limps, stutters and blogs!
