Alice Wong, a disability rights activist, writer, and MacArthur Genius award winner based in San Francisco, died last Friday at UCSF at the age of 51. Wong was best known as the founder of the<a href="https://disabilityvisibilityproject.com/"> Disability Visibility Project</a> (DVP), a group that highlights disabled people and disability culture through storytelling projects, social media and other channels.
Alice’s friend and fellow activist, Sandy Ho, wrote, “Alice Wong was a hysterical friend, writer, activist and disability justice luminary whose influence was outsized.” Today, we remember Wong by sharing a radio essay she recorded for The California Report Magazine in December 2022.
