(Past) Crip Camp Virtual Screening

July 26, 2020 marked the 30^th anniversary of the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). https://adata.org/learn-about-ada  Services for Students With Disabilities (SSWD) will host a screening and discussion of the Netflix film “Crip Camp” which follows a revolution born out of a ramshackle summer camp for individuals with disabilities. The documentary tells the story of how these teens became revolutionary activists in the Woodstock era and imagined a future that included those with disabilities in community and culture. Please view the trailer below:

SSWD invites the campus community to participate in the screening and discussion of “Crip Camp” on Thursday, October 29. There are two ways that students, faculty, and staff and others can participate. Participants can either watch the film on their own or join us for a Zoom screening on October 29 from 11:00 am – 1:00 pm. SSWD has arranged a panel of respondents from the disability community to help moderate a virtual discussion later Thursday evening. The panel and discussion will be held from 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm.

We are requesting all participants to RSVP to receive links to the screening and discussion.
