a disability rights activist and i'm involved with the program because i was on the staff at hampton at that point and one of the people who had been in the development of the movement prior to the camp then after camp hello jim jim nice to see your connection with the film and who introduced a self talk live audience hi everybody jim deliberate well i went to camp jeanette and. it was an incredible experience of my life i did work in the documentary world as a sound mixer and designer for a long time and brought the story of coaching there to the coal medium in the hopes that she would make a documentary about kanchan made and its connection to the disability rights movement. in the ca welcome to the stream tell of what he'd love with a connection to come. i'm really happy to be here with everybody

i'm a documentary filmmaker i have been for 25 years and jim has been the brilliant sound mixer and sound designer that i've worked with and when he brought me this story and started telling me about this you know hippie utopia that existed in which people were really treated equitably and there was like sex and drugs and rock a great time. and that that was connected somehow that kind of experience of liberation was really connected to the spark of the seeds of the disability rights movement i was so moved by the story and what i thought was really special about it was that it was jim's story and i asked him if he would co-direct the film with me and that's how i got involved. good move to have if you could describe. in a sentence what would. jump. freedom i think it's a place that i found freedom in or the ability to be unabashed. myself

to what was your sentence before about pants on at liberation effort for equality and a recognition that we are had the ability and right to contribute something was very special was happening there in the 1970 s. john can you explain to us what was exceptional about this plant for kids with disabilities well i mean i think came to me was really kind of a product of the times you know there was so many different liberation movements going on there and a war protests and we were all really kind of questioning authority and and you know the status quo and being somebody with a disability at the time. this is a place that was just so much different you know i i felt like i was a really treated as just

a normal kid outside of willy was feeling that way but a carriage man is like i was just a teenager so it was a place where all of the kind of stary or or you know things that really made me feel like i was a burden just just melted away so that little kid or the perry had to see that ok right there that we just over that was done and 15 he got up says a new very interesting activities have i won't spill the beans quite yet. you want to have a conversation with him and ponder via the right while in the fairy episode jumping to jump into the comments section and can be part of our discussion i want to go to . the sea to talks about why pants and art was so important at the time and really what that has done for other kids with disabilities have a listen have a look. i think one can't canary were important to young people but the other

because it provided for them to come in and connect with others like them especially at a time when most were in the or thankfully the ability right. along with then and there are more opportunities for young to be able to grow that learn . like. summer program. are important because they have reader that will bring about change more. seeders from the american association of people with disabilities did you feel judy at the time that you were somewhere exceptional and the people who are understand and how you relate and connect with people with disabilities that doesn't exclude them from everyday life i mean i think what camp with able to do for us is

that everybody's been saying it allowed us to recognize that we were human beings and it gave us a space where we were able to speak about our dreams and that only about our dreams but we were also able to speak about our concerns about being able to achieve what we wanted to do in life because of all the barriers because of lack of representation of disabled people in the media and it was that it was a space where we could plan and we practiced how to use our voice and how to give each other. optimistic feelings that in unity we would have strength and as jimmy was saying it also enabled us because television in the 1960 s. was bringing a new world it was the civil rights movement the women's rights movement the

antiwar movement and while many of us weren't able to actively participate in various reasons that was the model that we were looking at how you do so in. some very interesting in the film in that connects the experience of time to a board disability rights movement and other movements in the 1970 s. i'm going to play a little bit of a clip this is from a rally demonstration in new york city with people with disabilities have a look at the color what is a explain why you made those connections let's take a look. at demonstration in new york city. headquarters. we decided that we were going to sit down in the street we were. so at 430 in the afternoon when this huge circle would kind of force street. get the call to action to the barricades you know judy but call it. i remember

being on the ground with these big trucks coming to. work. it was a very unusual demonstration people are not used to seeing a whole lot of folks in wheelchairs and you had to back up i mean you had to back up if you were on the wrong side from that that you know. this is a break a story will tell in the car why. i think 11 of the things that was so exciting to us was cause to show how camp jeannette you know these young people discovered their kind of common experience of oppression and believed that they could do something about it together but across disability there is so much diversity and i think judy and other leaders at the time recognize that that was kind of a superpower you know because it it's so many different movements so many different liberation movements were part of the disability movement and so in berkeley as they started organizing and demonstrating you know there were gave people people

and there were black disabled people and there were black panthers who were disabled all of those people were kind of coming together and looking at disability rights and when there was this sort of epic sit in that we feature in the film and in in $77.00 there were members of all those groups inside the building and so it wasn't so much you know jim and i deciding to broaden it out but the kind of brilliant strategy that they laid out at the time which was like let's bring all these movements together so i think for us you know the idea of the black panthers for example you know deciding to bring food and supporting this. you know long takeover of a federal building which resulted in some very critical disability civil rights legislation like that's because they realize that you know. it was a better world that disabled activists were fighting for was this and that kind of

civil rights and and liberation was the same thing they were fighting for and that everybody was in it together and i think jim and i felt very very passionately about the fact that that's a really important message for today you know it's a model for organizing that is really powerful. i think it's also really important to understand that camp's net was a pivotal place but the reality was there were organizations like in new york where most of the people who were part of these groups never went to camps or net an organization called the stable in action and pride and now there's that were also being driven by college campuses where disabled people were also organizing and so i think it was many different things happening at the same time and again one of the reasons why the disability community was reaching out to other organizations was the model that we were seeing with the civil rights movement with the women's movement with the anti-war movement with they were reaching out to other people now

let's be really clear you know the reason the black panthers got involved was because one of their founding members had multiple sclerosis so he was credible and they joined him many other organizations you know they didn't understand disability they didn't understand it right based movement so that with a lot of work on the ground going on for years working with other organizations in a way where we came and said would you help us and we will help you so it wasn't one way when things were going out of the city level or at the county level we were there for each other in many different ways and we were building a coalition that for example when the demonstrations that curtain 1977 there were many years of collaboration that had been going on in the berkeley bay area. i'm going to bring in this thought he had this so many compliments about tampa. you can

see here this is the web page go look at this oscar nominated documentary feature lots of comments lots of feedback and then this comment that we got a little bit earlier this gave me pause because i did see the intersectionality in the film when i watched kate was asking for more of this and have a look. i felt that critic can't could have utilized their histories and stories in direct narrative of black people and people of color i thought that critic camp really needed some more perspective on how racial justice also informed their disability rights remark it felt very white and upper class to me so i'm really interested in how crypt can could have elaborated more on other experiences as it was shaping and i just can't deny that later disabled policy. given the cole i'm going to give this to both of you did you start. i think

that. one of the things that we really tried to do with our film was to leverage an entire campaign which we gave it into the hands of people who are deeply seated in the disability justice movement which is really look at disability rights through the lens of people who are by product people. l g b t q and that. really trying to take the visibility that we were getting making sure that that movement. could be really heard. the cocoa has think yeah i mean i think that there is like a. there is a point of view that we chose to take and encrypt camp which is that we wanted to tell the story from the perspective of this group of friends who came together can't jeanette and that's certainly not reflective of the entire movement and it's

certainly just kind of one story i have disability history and so we tried really hard to give to give a sense of the intersection ality that was in the film which which you were talking about but we felt it was important to really highlight that and to profile activists who had played a critical role in the particular story we were telling who had not been profiled but i think by virtue of the fact that we chose to focus on this particular band of friends and see the story through their eyes and that was partly because you know we there was this coalition of people that could come together and tell the story in the film and we could follow them throughout time and we had this incredible archival footage of them by that because of that it is not. you know it's not an overview of the entire history of the movement it's a very particular frame and we hope that that universe ality of camp and the teenage experience would draw on viewers who might not otherwise have access to

this history and that the that the platform that kripke camp had could hopefully lead and in partnership with the impact campaign jim was describing could really lead to other stories being told but i think that that comment is very valid in a sense that there's a lot more to this story and a lot more to be explored and many other stories that that should be told what i think this is a very important question. and everybody said that totally appropriate question i think what's really important is we're so used to not saying that you meant treat on disability that jimmy and that call have produced. an amazing film and it tells an amazing story the bisham abbey the end of the stories that are being told and so i think when we look in the next 5 to 10 is me the next 5 to 10 years we should be seeing other films documentaries and other you know films and

television programs except that really continue to reflect the changes that have been going on in the movement so for example the issues of race are critically important and l.g.b. t.q. a very important but also what's important are people with mental health disability and people with intellectual disabilities at that point in time at camp to ned those population of those people with disabilities were not a part of what was happening but now when we look at 2021 things that really exploded across racial lines across sexual orientation disability and that the scotians are becoming much more complex and serious and really delving deeper and deeper into what injustice is and what we need to be doing and what we need to be learning about how people are moving forward i want to show a couple of pictures because what you do jim in the you bust you break down stereotypes you explode them in an hour and 48 minutes so there is love there's

lost there's. i mean look here. my laptop here there's also which is really revealing jim a hierarchy of how people with disabilities see disability so do you want to share that hierarchy as we go from some of these fantastic there was from from the documentary at the top of the hierarchy and i believe this is slightly tongue in cheek well what disability because these are only things that people disabilities would say to themselves. well in in the filter days we see your cutouts but this hierarchy is getting so. and and that she felt like people with polio were at the top of the hierarchy and folks like herself who have servile palsy. were 'd much much lower. and you know i i don't disagree with her having this feeling

i assumed he would spot it bifida. you know i i didn't really think about that too much maybe that's because i was higher up on the hierarchy but you know i think every community has something like this dotted and it's in a reference kind of dark humor that you can share amongst yourselves that you give us a little window inside. non-disabled and also allow people who have to civilities to recognize it as well i gave you a very tough comment to come of the back of tim and the company can hear much easier one this time this one is from madison this is what he told us a lot of have a listen have. my older brother daniel had cerebral palsy and spent most of his life in the house and even as a young child i knew that there was a more fulfilling life out there for him they could be essentially doing the same things that i do and watching her camp was very powerful and moving to me saying that before he was even born there was already

a sense of community out there for him there was changes already to be made and that that life could have been his and although i'm sad that he did not get to experience a crew can't makes me so thankful that other people did get to the car go ahead. i mean i think that's really beautiful and i really love the idea of the valuing community you know i think that for us we had the word community taped to the wall of our it room and we thought about it all the time as kind of the core of what this is about this idea that there is community across all over diversity and difference of disability and part of the power of that is that as you know one of the activists says in the film you if you're you know in using a wheelchair you don't know necessarily what it's like to be blind so you're going to listen to someone and when they tell you what their truth is you're going to see it and believe and trust them about their experience and fight for them the way

they're fighting for you you know and i think that's that's so beautiful to to recognize and value the importance about and we really hope that this film would be an on ramps so to speak for lots of people to be able to find community and in disability community and and also to be able to feel proud. and see the value in a den of fighting as disabled which sometimes i think people are afraid that there might be a cost to identifying as disabled but the more the movement grows and the more people see the real value and in that community i think more people can find their way to it and benefit from it if i may judy i want to just tap into expertise as to the disability rights activists and expert this is bengal dragon who brings us way up to date right now the recent statistics for people with disabilities is a very sad reflection of the fadia of overall for equality for disabled people movement immediate restructuring is required basically where we now.

so we're talking about the world where talking about a more organized group of disabled people basically in every country when you think back 304050 years the international movement was really just emerging in the united states we've seen 50 years that where organizing and many laws being passed that really mehr the lock laws like the civil rights act of the 1964 and other pieces of legislation where we are today is with that international movement that looks at something called the convention on the rights of persons with disabilities where more than $175.00 countries have ratified meaning $175.00 governments have agreed that they will develop laws implement laws that will enable disable people to go to school get jobs make transportation

excessive bell housing employment opportunities etc but we're also in a serious situation where this ability is still a very marginalized community i mean we're talking about wonderful thing that have been happening but the reality of the situation is disabled people are probably one of the most marginalized groups and then add other aspect disability race poverty gender etc that makes life more and more difficult so i think where we need to be is much more unification not just within the disability community but within their rights and justice we've been around the world to understand that if a non disabled woman is raped she likely has a disability that the women's movement needs to be looking at issues of violence against women with disabilities and women who acquire disability as an example that's the same thing in the environment etc. thank you i have to say a few

a few wolf which is this is judy is a little one right. because this is her as a little bigger one as an activist and this is a right here she's still and she's still being an activist right here on the screen let me just embarrass jim because that's equal opportunities here this is jim as a youngster back here is the crowd can read cite and then here right here is critics have the virtual web site and then right here currently streaming on netflix critic a disability revolution judy jim the. for a couple of hours but i only have a couple of seconds left to say thank you so much for being on the street i really appreciate you and i will see you next time from locates signing off and so watching everybody to get. the word.
