Award-winning speculative fiction writer, deafblind disability rights activist, and Seattleite Elsa Sjunneson will read from her Washington State Book Award-winning memoir, Being Seen: One Deafblind Woman's Fight to End Ableism, at this talk. Described as "a much-needed wake-up call for the nondisabled world” by Kirkus Reviews, the book digs into the misrepresentation of disability in contemporary media.
