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.

Filled with incisive wit, joy, and rage, Wong’s Year of the Tiger will galvanize readers with big cat energy. * This audiobook includes a downloadable PDF containing photographs, illustrations and a crossword puzzle from the printed book.
