About this listen
Founder of advocacy organization Diversability and creator of the viral Anti-Ableism Series on TikTok, Tiffany Yu takes listeners on a revelatory examination of disability—how to unpack your biases and build a disability-inclusive and accessible world.
As the Asian American daughter of immigrants, living with PTSD and a permanent arm injury sustained at age nine, Tiffany Yu is well aware of the intersections of identity that affect us all. She navigated the male-dominated world of corporate finance as an investment banker at Goldman Sachs before founding Diversability, an award-winning community business run by disabled people building disability pride, power, and leadership.
Organized from the personal to the professional, the domestic to the political, the Me to the We to the Us, The Anti-Ableist Manifesto frames context for conversations, breaks down the language of ableism, identifies microaggressions, and proposes real actions that lead to genuine and authentic allyship.
- How do we remove ableist language from our daily vocabulary?
- How do we create inclusive events?
- What are the advantages of hiring disabled employees, and what market opportunity are we missing out on when we don’t consider disabled consumers?
With contributions from disability advocates, activists, authors, entrepreneurs, scholars, educators, and executives, Yu celebrates the power of stories and lived experiences to foster the proximity, intimacy, and humanity of disability identities that have far too often been “othered” and rendered invisible. The Anti-Ableist Manifesto is an essential book for going beyond mere awareness and becoming an active anti-ableist working form a more equitable society for all.

What would it be like to live in a well-rested world? Far too many of us have claimed productivity as the cornerstone of success. Brainwashed by capitalism, we subject our bodies and minds to work at an unrealistic, damaging, and machine‑level pace—feeding into the same engine that enslaved millions into brutal labor for its own relentless benefit. In Rest Is Resistance, Tricia Hersey, aka the Nap Bishop, casts an illuminating light on our troubled relationship with rest and how to imagine and dream our way to a future where rest is exalted.

Story
Judith Butler, the groundbreaking thinker whose iconic book Gender Trouble redefined how we think about gender and sexuality, confronts the attacks on “gender” that have become central to right-wing movements today. Global networks have formed “anti-gender ideology movements” that are dedicated to circulating a fantasy that gender is a dangerous, perhaps diabolical, threat to families, local cultures, civilization—and even “man” himself. In this book, Butler illuminates the concrete ways that this phantasm of “gender” collects and displaces anxieties and fears of destruction.

Powerfully on the mark, the chapters are short and digestible, nicely bypassing weighty examinations in favor of punch points of awareness.

Critic reviews
"Tiffany Yu guides readers through a cross-disability exploration of ableism in a warm, easy-to-read style. Her book is a precious gift for new allies and experienced advocates alike."—Haben Girma, bestselling author of Haben: The Deafblind Woman Who Conquered Harvard Law
"Tiffany Yu's The Anti-Ableist Manifesto is a powerful journey, merging personal narratives with collective insights to confront and dismantle ableism. As someone deeply immersed in the study of prejudice, including the often-overlooked discrimination faced by people with disabilities, Yu delivers a timely and indispensable guide for our times."—Amy Cuddy, New York Times Bestselling Author of Presence
“It can be difficult to know how to respond to ableism when one encounters it in the wild, but Tiffany Yu's The Anti-Ableist Manifesto offers a timely, practical, and generous field guide. It's a clear, comprehensive, and accessible instruction manual for anyone who cares about disability (and, even more crucially, for those who don't).”—Andrew Leland, author of Pulitzer Prize-finalist The Country of the Blind

We call it domestic violence. We call it private violence. Sometimes we call it intimate terrorism. But whatever we call it, we generally do not believe it has anything at all to do with us, despite the World Health Organization deeming it a 'global epidemic'. In No Visible Bruises, journalist Rachel Louise Snyder gives context for what we don't know we're seeing. She frames this urgent and immersive account of the scale of domestic violence in our country around key stories that explode the common myths....

Former Navy Air Rescue swimmer Brian Dickinson was roughly 1,000 feet from the summit of Mount Everest, also known as "the death zone", when his Sherpa became ill and had to turn back, leaving Brian with a difficult decision: Should he continue to push for the summit or head back down the mountain? After carefully weighing the options, Brian decided to continue toward the summit, alone. Four hours later, Brian solo summited the highest peak in the world. But the celebration was short lived.

Story
Neuroscientists have painstakingly built up an understanding of the structure of the brain. Could this help physicists understand the levels of self-organization they observe in other systems? These same physicists, meanwhile, are trying to explain how particles organize themselves into the objects around us. Could their discoveries help explain how neurons produce our conscious experience? Exploring these questions and more, George Musser tackles the extraordinary interconnections between quantum mechanics, cosmology, human consciousness, and artificial intelligence.

Why are some people more successful than others? Self-confidence! What one great goal would you set if you knew you could not fail? What wonderful things would you want to do with your life if you were guaranteed success in anything you attempted? Your level of self-confidence determines the size of the goals you set, the energy and determination that you focus on achieving them, and the amount of persistence you apply to overcoming every obstacle.

Most of us give little thought to the back of the book - it's just where you go to look things up. But as Dennis Duncan reveals in this delightful and witty history, hiding in plain sight is an unlikely realm of ambition and obsession, sparring and politicking, pleasure and play. In the pages of the index, we might find "Butchers, to be avoided", or "Cows that shite Fire", or even catch "Calvin in his chamber with a Nonne". Here, for the first time, is the secret world of the index: an unsung but extraordinary everyday tool, with an illustrious but little-known past.

Then, barred from entering the United States, they lived in Cuba for almost two years before immigrating to New York.

Review of The Anti-Ableist Manifesto by Tiffany Yu
Tiffany Yu’s The Anti-Ableist Manifesto is nothing short of transformative. As someone deeply invested in fostering accessibility and belonging, I found this book to be both a call to action and a guide for dismantling ableism in all its forms.
Yu’s writing is powerful, personal, and deeply reflective, offering a rare combination of vulnerability and expertise. She doesn’t shy away from confronting uncomfortable truths, yet she does so in a way that feels inviting rather than alienating. Her ability to connect personal experiences with broader systemic issues makes the book accessible while still being profoundly impactful.
What I loved most is how Yu doesn’t just tell readers what needs to change—she equips them with practical tools to create that change. Whether you’re an ally, an advocate, or someone seeking to better understand ableism, this manifesto serves as both a mirror and a map.
The book’s intersectional lens is particularly refreshing, reminding us that ableism doesn’t exist in isolation. Yu beautifully ties together threads of race, gender, class, and other identities, underscoring the importance of addressing ableism as part of a broader commitment to equity and justice.
For anyone committed to creating a world where dignity, accessibility, and belonging are non-negotiable, The Anti-Ableist Manifesto is essential reading. Tiffany Yu has given us a gift—a manifesto that not only challenges us but also inspires us to be better, do better, and build a better world.
Highly recommend!

A wellspring of inspiration for disability advocacy
Part memoir, encyclopedia, blueprint and call to action, this book is a must-read for individuals wrestling with their personal relationship with disability and ethical organizations alike. Tiffany Yu lays out a clear path for anyone interested in the journey from unawareness, through myths and misconceptions, personal reflection and accountability, to societal change that benefits everyone. An essential read for the next frontier of social justice.
