152: Fully Heumann [Righteous Resistance pt.2: Judy Heumann and the ADA]
In the 1970s the campers at Camp Jened in upstate New York all shared two things in common. First, that they were all living with some kind of disability. And second, they would help launch a movement that would change the world. The United States looked very different 50 years ago for individuals with disabilities - it was closed to them. Our modern world is filled with physical proof - from elevators to curb cuts - of the advocacy these former campers and long time friends committed their lives to. One camper in particular would become synonymous with the Disability Civil Rights movement, Judy Heumann. This week we pay respect and shed light to the work of Judy and countless other advocates who had to fight to be seen as “Fully Heumann”, this week on Well, I Laughed.
