About this product

Product Information

For psychotherapist, painter, feminist, filmmaker, writer, and disability activist Harilyn Rousso, hearing well intentioned people tell her, You're so inspirational! is patronizing, not complimentary. In her empowering and at times confrontational memoir, Dont Call Me Inspirational, Rousso who has cerebral palsy, describes overcoming the prejudice against disabilitynot overcoming disability. She addresses the often absurd and ignorant attitudes of strangers, friends, and family. Rousso also examines her own prejudice toward her disabled body, and portrays the healing effects of intimacy and creativity, as well as her involvement with the disability rights community. She intimately reveals herself with honesty and humour and measures her personal growth as she goes from passing to embracing and claiming her disability as a source of pride, positive identity, and rebellion. A collage of images about her life, rather than a formal portrait, Dont Call Me Inspirational celebrates Roussos wise, witty, productive, outrageous life, disability and all. Harilyn Rousso is a disability activist, feminist, psychotherapist, writer, and painter. She is the President of Disabilities Unlimited Consulting Services, founder of the Networking Project for Disabled Women and Girls, co-editor of Double Jeopardy: Addressing Gender Equity in Special Education and author of Disabled, Female, and Proud! She lives in New York City.
