Poor little sick girls by Ione Gamble
After being confined to her bed with a diagnosis for an incurable illness, Ione Gamble watched as the rest of the world became obsessed with Girlboss feminism and #LivingOurBestLives. Using her own experiences with disability, Gamble explores what it means to be an unacceptable woman in this era of empowerment.
