[schizoaffectively]

I watched the documentary "Crip Camp" about a week ago now, and I wanted to hold off on giving my opinion until I had some time to let it settle in in my brain. After watching it, I felt so happy and loved it! I can easily say that I love it just as much as when I finished it a week ago! I highly recommend it to anyone interested in disabled history in the US!

What I love most about it is that it shows the history of the disabled community and disability civil rights movement in a very real way, with the voices of some of the people who paved that path! It also doesn't sanitize the disabled experience like some other pieces of media do, such as touching upon romance and sex while being disabled.

It also taught me some history I didn't know about my own community! I knew a chunk of it, but other things I did not! They don't teach about disabled history much in school, or at least didn't where I was and when I was in school... if that has changed, let me know!

Anyways, can't recommend this documentary enough. Loved it with all my heart.

Watching Crip Camp rn and I’m over halfway through and getting so emotional. Im finally learning my history as a physically disabled person and it’s so powerful. It’s also so amazing learning about the intersectionality that exists.

Please watch this documentary, it’s on Netflix and YouTube.

[softest-epilogue]

the “I see you and I believe you” line in crip camp just made me sob

having “invisible” disabilities, being seen doesn’t happen. doctors don’t believe you — their biases running too deep. family and strangers question your needs, question your wants, pose whys and how longs.

being seen is so important. being believed is so important.

"Change never happens at the pace we think it should. It happens over years of people joining together, strategizing, sharing, and pulling all the levers they possibly can. Gradually, excruciatingly slowly, things start to happen, and then suddenly, seemingly out of the blue, something will tip." - Judith Heumann

'The Mother'

I painted this over the last month to honor the passing of the founder of the disability civil Rights movement Judy Heumann. People living with disabilities, such as myself would not have half the opportunities that we do without this woman and though there's still plenty of fighting to be done she blazed a hell of a trail for the rest of us to follow, we'll miss you Judy

(If you haven't watched 'crip camp' on Netflix you should)

CRIMP CAMP: A DISABILITY REVOLUTION

I love these docs that show other sides to the 60s Woodstock moment (such as this and Summer of Soul). You only ever hear of one particular narrative, so it’s nice to see what was happening with other communities during that time. 

And films centering disabled people are long overdue. I don’t think I’ve EVER seen a disabled person centered in the movies before?? Or if I have, they are maybe like the comedic element, or used to elicit a sort of “aww” factor. So, I think just a movie like this showing the power and fierceness of disabled people was really great (but also, should just be more of the norm). 

This was sort of a mix of like personal narrative and historical film. The entry-way being the Camp Jened, which started and ended the film, but then we learn about the protests and sit-ins that led to the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act. 

The producer of the film said, "What Jim and I always felt is that we wanted the film to bring people into the world of Camp Jened, to give them that experience themselves: arriving at camp, checking out the scene, maybe feeling a little bit uncomfortable, not sure what's going on, not sure if they speak the language. Then, over time, they'd come to feel like this is a world that is fun and joyous and liberating for them as viewers, just like it was for Jim.”

Movie Questions Ask Game :): #3

What film do you absolutely despise and why.

Me Before You because it's ableist euthanasia porn and that damn octopus documentary that won an Oscar. I never actually watched that one but the documentary Crip Camp should have won the Oscar without question.

Remembering Judy Heumann and Gary Rossington

Here is my combined remembrance to two we lost this weekend:

Judy Heumann 1947-2023

Heumann

Disability rights activist Judy Heumann has died at 75. In addition to all of the progress she made for people with disabilities in the U.S. she was one of the subjects of the phenomenal documentary Crip Camp, which I named my #2 Documentary of 2020. 

The link above is the obit from Hollywood Reporter.

Remembering Gary Rossington 1951-2023

Rossington

Lynyrd Skynyrd guitarist Gary Rossington has died at 71. He was their guitarist for the vast majority of he band and on all of their releases. I can’t say I got heavy into LS, but no denying their longevity and hits like “Sweet Home Alabama”, “Free Bird”, “That Smell” (featured in Ted Demme’s Blow), “Simple Man”, and my personal favorite “Tuesday’s Gone” (featured in Dazed and Confused as the party ends).

The link above is the obit from Spin.

The Obamas executive produced this film. There's a huge need for this sort of thing with so much 'eww, you aren't straight white and perfect enough for my standards' out there, which is making our country a pretty nasty place.

Quit enjoying it -- it's about a summer camp for folks with disabilities, one located in the Catskills.
