As a special gift to listeners this holiday season here is a rebroadcast from December 15, 2020. Joyce welcomed the late Judith Heumann, internationally recognized leader in the disability rights independent living movement, to the show. Ms. Heumann worked with a wide range of activist organizations (including the Berkeley Center for Independent Living and the American Association of People with Disabilities), NGOs, and governments since the 1970s and contributed greatly to the development of human rights legislation and policy benefiting disabled people. In the show, she discussed her memoir, “Being Heumann: An Unrepentant Memoir of a Disability Rights Activist,” which was published in February 2020.   Judith (Judy) E. Heumann - Judy Heumann was an internationally recognized leader in the disability rights community. She authored her memoir, with Kristen Joiner, “Being Heumann: An Unrepentant Memoir of a Disability Rights Activist,” published by Beacon Press and audio recorded by Ali Stroker, who is the first wheelchair actor to perform on Broadway. Judy was featured on the Trevor Noah show. Judy is featured in “Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution,” a 2020 American award-winning documentary film, directed by James LeBrecht and Nicole Newnham, produced by the Obama Higher Ground Production. Ms. Huemann has been featured in numerous documentaries on the history of the disability rights movement, including “Lives Worth Living” and the “Power of 504.” She delivered a TED talk in the fall of 2016, “Our Fight for Disability Rights and Why We're Not Done Yet.” Her story was also told on Comedy Central's Drunk History in early 2018, in which she was portrayed by Ali Stroker. As Senior Fellow at the Ford Foundation (2017-2019), she wrote “Road Map for Inclusion: Changing the Face of Disability in Media.” She also served on several non-profit boards, including the American Association of People with Disabilities, the Disability Rights Education and Defense Fund, Humanity and Inclusion, as well as the Human Rights Watch board.

It was summertime in the early 1970s in New York City. Fifteen-year-old Jim LeBrecht boarded a school bus headed for the Catskill Mountains, home to Camp Jened, a summer camp for people with disabilities. As the bus approached the camp, he peered out the window at the warm and raucous group below."I wasn't exactly sure who was a camper and who was a counselor," he said. "I think that's really indicative of one of the many things that made that camp special."Over several years, the camp changed him in profound ways."I, for the first time, understood that I didn't need to be embarrassed about being disabled, that I could have pride in who I was," he said. "And that it was possible to fight back against the system that was keeping us down."Nearly five decades later, in 2020, LeBrecht and filmmaker Nicole Newnham released on Netflix the documentary Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution, about Camp Jened and the activism it inspired. "What did we used to say, it was like Wet Hot American Summer meets The Times of Harvey Milk?" said Newnham. "It's an activist history story. It's the origin story of a political and identity-based community, the disability community. But it's also a coming-of-age story and a joyous sort of celebration of youth and disability culture coming together." All incoming undergraduate students at UC Berkeley watched Crip Camp over the summer as part of On the Same Page, a program of the College of Letters and Science. "We had a couple of goals with our film," said LeBrecht. "One of them was to reframe what disability meant to people with and without disabilities. We also wanted to start conversations. I hope that this plants a seed within all of these students that they do talk, they do think differently, and that this is something they hold for the rest of their lives that will make the world a better place."Photo by Steve Honigsbaum/Netflix.Music by Blue Dot Sessions.Listen to the episode, read the transcript and see photos on Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu).

Judy Heumann was a quadriplegic who, throughout her life, was instrumental in the progress of disability rights issues. She died at age 75 this past weekend. We honor her legacy by re-visiting her conversation with Sarah Fenske in 2020. They discuss the documentary film “Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution” in which Judy was featured. Colleen Starkloff, co-founder of the Starkloff Disability Institute, also joined the conversation.

Stephanie and Robyn discuss the documentary Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution. We discuss our deep love for camp culture, the history of the camp the title refers to, and how a community formed in the 1970's helped shape disability activism and the world we all live in. Significant admiration for Judy Huemann happens.

Do you know July of each year is Disability pride month? 32 years ago, on July 26th, the Americans With Disability Act was signed into law, and since then, discrimination against people with disability was prohibited, and more and more people with disability find advocacy and support from society. To celebrate this important month in the history of disabled rights, we are honored to have a very special guest with us today, Mr. Gossage, the director of the Ann Arbor center for independent living. Mr. Gossage will share with us… the history of the independent living movement, its driving philosophy, and what it takes for people with disabilities to be independent. If you are interested in the independent living movement and want to know more about this history, Mr. Gossage recommended a documentary: CRIP CAMP: A DISABILITY REVOLUTION, that he thought would be a good introduction to this topic. We would love to extend our gratitude to the Fifth Avenue Studios in Ann Arbor Public Library, who helped us connect with Mr. Gossage and many wonderful guest interviewees in future episodes.

The award-winning 2020 documentary Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution is a moving, open and personal take on the determination, difficulties and successes of a group of people growing up in the disability rights movement, what they accomplished, and the importance of inclusivity. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Pour comprendre pourquoi les mêmes arguments carnistes reviennent constamment dans les discussions autour de l'éthique animale - les divers arguments qu'on a examinés dans les épisodes précédents, qui ne sont pas valides mais continuent d'être assénés - on peut se tourner du côté de la psychologie qui permet d'expliquer nos croyances et nos intuitions, y compris quand celles-ci se révèlent être fausses.  Martin Gibert parle en particulier dans cet épisode du paradoxe de la viande et de dissonance cognitive. Il revient sur les deux 'pensées consonantes' (des arguments carnistes qui ont pour but de réduire la dissonance) que sont l'idée que manger des animaux est dans les traditions et que tout le monde le fait donc ça ne peut pas être condamné moralement, et celle que manger des animaux serait justifiable car naturel.  Il explique enfin que l'inclusion des autres animaux dans notre champ de considération morale n'est pas un bouleversement de nos intuitions éthiques, mais davantage une amélioration de notre perception morale qui nous permet de voir les implications de nos intuitions qui nous échappaient jusqu'alors : "L'écran carniste se brise ; on se met à voir son steak comme un animal mort"  ________________________________  Références et sources citées dans l'entretien :   - les livres de Martin Gibert : L'imagination en morale (2014), Voir son steak comme un animal mort (2015) et Faire la morale aux robots (2021)  - Le biais du statu quo : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biais_du_statu_quo  - Le sophisme naturaliste : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paralogisme_naturaliste  - L'appel à la nature : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appel_à_la_nature    Recommandations de Martin Gibert :  - La vidéo de Monsieur Phi "ÉTHIQUE ANIMALE : la probabilité d'une catastrophe | Argument frappant #9 - Ep.1" : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaVWbdlAiCQ&t=10s -   - Le podcast pro-féministe Mansplaining, de Slate, animé par Thomas Messias : http://www.slate.fr/audio/mansplaining/ - Le documentaire en anglais "CRIP CAMP: A DISABILITY REVOLUTION" disponible sur Youtube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFS8SpwioZ4 ________________________________ SOUTENIR : https://linktr.ee/poissonpodcast Comme un poisson dans l'eau est un podcast indépendant et sans publicité : votre soutien est indispensable pour qu'il puisse continuer à exister.

We don't understand why Netflix's most popular documentaries all seem to be sensationalistic, exploitative or dishonest (Tiger King, Seaspiracy, etc.). So on the 40th episode of BEHOLD!, we thought we'd highlight some of the streamer's best nonfiction instead - informative and insightful documentaries like American Factory, Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution, Lenox Hill and The Innocence Files.

"This book is a message from autistic people to their parents, friends, teachers, coworkers and doctors showing what life is like on the spectrum," writes our guest, author Eric Garcia in We're Not Broken. "It's also my love letter to autistic people. For too long, we have been forced to navigate a world where all the road signs are written in another language.”Garcia, who is autistic, is a senior Washington correspondent for The Independent. He has worked as a writer and reporter covering politics at The Washington Post, The Hill, and the National Journal."My main point is autistic people are fine as they are," Eric tells us in this episode. “The idea that they are fundamentally flawed and failed human beings is simply not true... Instead of trying to cure autistic people, society should help them live fulfilling lives.”For many decades, people with autism have been stigmatized and subjected to harmful myths and wild conspiracy theories— all of them hurtful. We examine how they have been mistreated and ignored, and look at how to fix our misconceptions. Eric's new book has been greeted with positive reviews. The Washington Post calls it "outstanding", and a "call to include autistic people in the conversations that concern them." Recommendations: Jim praises "Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution" on Netflix — a documentary about a groundbreaking summer camp that galvanizes a group of teens with disabilities to help build a movement, forging a new path toward greater equality. Richard is listening to "Aut-Hour", a podcast hosted by Sara Gibbs that interviews autistic authors about their life and work. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This month's installment of The More You Know Series takes a look at Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution. Avery recaps and shares her reactions to this award-winning documentary. For those interested in watching the film, it can be found on Netflix.

Thirty-one years ago, the fabric of America's legal and policy landscape changed dramatically for people with disabilities in the United States when the Americans with Disabilities Act, or ADA, was signed into law by President George H. W. Bush, on July 26, 1990. But, as far we've come these past thirty-plus years, we still have incredibly far to go. Even prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, disabled people in the United States—who make up one in four Americans—were roughly twice as likely to live in poverty and two to three times more likely to be unemployed. Now, as federal policymakers work to "build back better," the United States has the opportunity to take another set of historic steps towards achieving the ADA's promise of equal opportunity, community integration, and participation in American life for people with disabilities—a promise that remains as-yet unfulfilled.  For this special relaunch episode of Off-Kilter, Rebecca talks with four of the disabled women leaders who've been making history on the front-lines of the ongoing fight for disability economic justice: Rep. Ayanna Pressley (MA-7); Judy Heumann, whose historic activism jumpstarted the disability rights movement over forty years ago; Rebecca Cokley, a lifelong disability advocate and program officer at the Ford Foundation, where she heads the first U.S. disability rights program at any major foundation in the country; and Mia Ives-Rublee, the director of the Disability Justice Initiative at the Center for American Progress.

February is Jewish Disability Awareness, Acceptance and Inclusion Month, a unified effort among Jewish organizations worldwide to raise awareness and foster acceptance and inclusion of people with disabilities and mental health conditions and those who love them. To mark the month, The Vibe of the Tribe spoke with one of the most prominent leaders of the disability rights movement—Judy Heumann. If you've benefited from building ramps, extended time on tests or even standing desks, Heumann and her friends are the reason. Heumann, who contracted polio at 18 months old, was denied her teaching license just because she was paralyzed. After suing the New York Board of Education, she, along with other advocates, launched a prolonged battle against discrimination ignored by institutions and government on every level, all of which saw access like building ramps as an expensive annoyance serving a few long-marginalized people. Exclusion was a de facto national policy. Through protests, sit-ins and other non-violent actions, this team of young adults, along with their families, allies and partners, forced the federal government to hear their demands and to grant long-denied civil rights to people with disabilities. Their action led to the passage of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. Heumann co-founded and worked at several nonprofits and advocacy groups, was appointed to positions in the Clinton and Obama administrations and served as the World Bank Group's first advisor on disability and development. Her book, “Being Heumann: An Unrepentant Memoir of a Disability Rights Activist,” was published last year, and her story is highlighted in the award-winning documentary “Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution,” produced by former President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. We were honored and humbled to welcome Heumann to The Vibe of the Tribe to discuss the power of community, her pivotal role in American history, her indelible mark on civil rights around the world and the work that's left to do. Edited by Jesse Ulrich, with music by Ryan J. Sullivan.

"I hear about a summer camp for the handicapped run by hippies. Somebody said you probably will smoke dope with the counselors, and I'm like...sign me up!" Click here for a full episode transcript In today's episode we look at the 2020 documentary Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution, which tells the story of a remarkable summer camp for teens with disabilities called Camp Jened that operated in New York State in the 70s. The film contains footage of the camp, and we get to know several of the campers, and then we follow them and see what they did in the decades following—and it is remarkable. The film has tons of info on disability advocacy and the history of people with disabilities fighting for fair treatment, and it makes a strong case that this fight is far from over. It's also incredibly entertaining, funny, and endearing as we witness the relationships between several of the campers and where those go over the years. My guest today is Kerri Michael. Kerri does a lot of things, she works for a film organization called Made in Arkansas, she's a yoga instructor, and a movie nerd like myself. She also works for Disability Rights Arkansas so I immediately thought of her when I watched this movie, and I knew she'd be a good person to have on the show with her combination of disability knowledge and cinema love.

Greetings to all you magical beings out there! This fortnight, we're discussing A Curse so Dark and Lonely by Brigid Kemmerer. We immensely enjoyed Kemmerer's spin on the whole Beauty and the Beast tradition, and we found Harper to be one of the most relatable and badass protagonists! There's so much about this novel that we found relevant to our pandemic times– especially re: disability, medical debt, . Also, J & K happen to be on different ships this time! Hope you enjoy and learn things and teach us things! Content warning: terminal illness and parental death, rape and sexual assault (mins 20-22). Call to action: This week we're encouraging y'all to “crip” your timelines on social media.
