The New Jersey Association of Blind Students (NJABS) invites you to its
first ever virtual movie night with the underlying theme of comparing
disability rights in the 1960s and now.



Join us on Sunday, June 23 from 6PM to 8PM Eastern Time for the viewing on
Zoom of CRIP CAMP: A Disability Revolution. This documentary, released in
2020 and co-produced by former President Barack Obama and First Lady
Michelle Obama, outlines the true story of a group of teenagers with
physical disabilities who come together in the wake of the disability
rights movement some 50 years ago.



Join us to learn about the ordinary people who made extraordinary strides
to advocate for disability rights. Together, we will watch history
unfold. As described by Netflix, this documentary features “a
groundbreaking summer camp for teens with disabilities proves so inspiring
that a group of its alumni join the disability rights movement to advocate
for historic legislation changes”. View the trailer here

One such camper was Judith Heumann, who became a friend of the Federation.
At the time of her death in 2023, she was known as the “Mother of the
Disability Civil Rights Movement.”



Her legacy lives on through the powerful legislation of the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA)



The film is audio-described and has closed captioning. Participation in
this viewing event is free. For additional information, contact NJABS Chair
