520 |a "Lachi is an award-winning musician and an unapologetic activist who awakens the world to this truth: Disability is an identity worth brazenly celebrating. In her book, Lachi spotlights how disabled people have to be driven, persistent, perceptive, and highly adaptable just to get through any given day. What would happen if society finally valued disabled people as the leaders, role models, and key innovators they truly are? I IDENTIFY AS BLIND envisions how we can build that world. Weaving together personal stories, sharp pop culture takes, inspiring activist history, and incisive cultural criticism, Lachi lights the path forward and reveals how insights from people with disabilities have shaped society for the better. She interviews some of the most powerful personalities in Disability Culture, including Senator Tammy Duckworth, ADA advocate and disability rights icon Judy Heumann, and Oscar-nominated filmmaker of Crip Camp Jim LeBrecht. She even takes readers behind the scenes at Coldplay concerts, since after Chris Martin developed tinnitus he helped transform his concerts into some of the most accessible in the world. Readers discover how many innovations created for people with disabilities benefit everyone--from audio books, to curb cuts, to the Internet. (Yes, Vint Cerf helped develop the first commercial email service because he was hearing impaired and had trouble communicating by phone.).
