    I enjoyed "CODA". I hope this is at least as good.

    I worry a little bit about it all being from Judy's POV, though. So many people were responsible for those breakthroughs and a lot of disabled BIPOC got overshadowed by subsequent press coverage of white disabled people.

  2. @mekkaokereke Yup, and the Black Panthers practiced solidarity, too! For example, the nascent disability rights movement in the United States was helped out by the Black Panthers.

    Early disability rights activists credit the Panthers with giving them advice and support, as well as spreading word about their organizing. The Panthers also brought food every day to the Section 504 sit-in.

  5. One of the most unique braille systems wasn’t for reading. Decapoint (Raphigraphy) was created by Louis Braille so that blind people could write to the sighted.

  9. How do societies remember those once hidden behind institutional walls? The Swedish podcast "Vipeholmsanstalten" reconstructs the world of neglect, coercion and medical experimentation in one of Sweden’s largest institutions for intellectually disabled people.

    Anna Derksen explores how the podcast produces historical knowledge as a form of mediated memory 👇

  11. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has issued a "direct final rule" that would eliminate the requirement that new buildings constructed with federal funds must be accessible to people with disabilities. This move would weaken the civil rights protections guaranteed by Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act.

    We want to recommend an outstanding resource for teaching about the 504 Regulations: Crip Camp. 1/2

  12. Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution follows a group of disabled teens as they become historic disability rights activists.

    Crip Camp chronicles decades of disability activism and the fight for disability justice. The film includes the 1973 504 Sit-in, where people with disabilities and the disability community occupied US federal building to push for groundbreaking disability rights legislation. It also highlights the 1990 protests in support of the Americans with Disabilities Act, one of the most stirring scenes imaginable—disabled activists pulling themselves up the Capitol steps in what became known as the “Capitol Crawl.” No overview of US protest history is complete without Crip Camp. 6/n
