The Anti-Ableist Manifesto: Smashing Stereotypes, Forging Change, and Building a Disability-Inclusive World

By Tiffany Yu

Tiffany Yu celebrates the power of stories and lived experiences to foster the proximity, intimacy, and humanity of disability identities that have far too often been 'othered' and rendered invisible. ...

By Candy Valentino

"If you are not intentionally building a business, you will accidentally build yourself a job." No matter how good you are, and no matter how long you've been at this, the reality is 91% of all businesses fail within 10 years. According to the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), around 66% of all new businesses make it to the two-year mark, and only half of all companies survive past five years and more than 90% fail within 10 years. And it's not just small businesses that suffer this fate. I almost fell off my chair when I learned that 88% of all the Fortune 500 companies that existed just 50 years ago are gone.
