Creating Equalities - Heumann and Disability Rights

Creating Equalities - Heumann and Disability Rights In the lead up to International Day of Disabled Persons and as part of UK Disability History Month, UCL is hosting a 'fireside chat' with legendary disability rights activist, Judy Heumann, about her book ‘Being Heumann: An Unrepentant Memoir of a Disability Rights Activist’. Chaired by Pro-Provost (Equity & Inclusion) Professor Sasha Roseneil, Judy will also be joined by Dr Sarabajaya Kumar, UCL lecturer, 2021 UCL's Sir Stephen Wall Inclusion Award winner (Inspiring Role Model) and a disabled equality activist in her own right. In addition to Judy’s world-renowned work as a disability rights leader, she is also the creator of the podcast The Heumann Perspective, a subject of the Oscar-nominated documentary Crip Camp and served under both the Obama and Clinton administrations.
