In this book of poetry, with each carefully chosen word, we explore themes of inclusivity, human rights, and breaking down barriers. Tony's words are a rallying cry for equality and understanding. Gaining a deeper appreciation for the importance of advocating for disability rights and celebrating Disability Pride. Tony Malone has been a human rights advocate and an activist for Disabled People's Rights across the world for over 20 years. He has helped influence through words, thoughts and actions the way we think about others, show compassion and celebrate diversity. With a foreword by Julie Newman, former chair of the UK Disabled People's Council and known advocate for many rights, Julie has also been active in the Disability Arts Movement for most of her life. From the foreword by Julie Newman: This book of poems is greater than the sum of its parts. It is a celebration of pride in words. Words that paint pictures, sing songs of pain and triumph, and share that glimpse of intimate thought. More than that, it demonstrates that hidden power so often unseen.
