Tanzanian Women in Their Own Words is a collection of oral
contemporary histories by Tanzanian women living with a wide range
of disability and/or chronic illness. This relatively short book,
which includes fourteen life narratives, is a rich resource for
disability scholars seeking to globalize their course curriculums.
The stories simultaneously provide examples of the culturally and
historically specific meanings of disability, and reveal how,
regardless of culture, relationships, education, class, religion,
and gender can shape disability experiences.

After every chapter, the author pose several discussion questions.
. . . These questions are excellent teaching aids for the
classroom, as they challenge world views, biases and stereotypes,
and belief systems. ... The material unearthed by the story telling
method is complex and interconnected, but the books simple and
accessible format and unique structure allow the reading of it to
be more open-ended than definitive.
