LOUD & QUEER 20: Queer with Disabilities (LOUD & QUEER ZINE)

By Marisa Wohlschlaeger

Like queerness, disability comes in many forms and identities that bring different perspectives and challenges in a world not built with all of us in mind. Imagining a world that welcomes queerness includes disabled queers too, and it's up to us to ensure that the world we build will uplift all of us. Queerness and disability often intersect for those who experience both, and to some of us, our queerness and disability feel like connected parts of what makes us different and unique. Though moving through this world with this difference can be difficult at times, it is also what allows us to see the world through our unique lens and share that perspective through amazing creation. I hope the creation in this issue helps you celebrate and reflect on these perspectives.
