Descriere magazin:
As featured in the Oscar-nominated documentary Crip Camp , and for readers of I Am Malala , one of the most influential disability rights activists in US history tells her story of fighting to belong. "If I didn\'t fight, who would?" Judy Heumann was only 5 years old when she was first denied her right to attend school. Paralyzed from polio and raised by her Holocaust-surviving parents in New York City, Judy had a drive for equality that was instilled early in life. In this young readers\' edition of her acclaimed memoir, Being Heumann , Judy shares her journey of battling for equal access in an unequal world--from fighting to attend grade school after being described as a "fire hazard" because of her wheelchair, to suing the New York City school system for denying her a teacher\'s license because of her disability. Judy went on to lead 150 disabled people in the longest sit-in protest in US history at the San Francisco Federal Building. Cut off from the outside world, the group slept on office floors, faced down bomb threats, and risked their lives to win the world\'s attention and the first civil rights legislation for disabled people. Judy\'s bravery, persistence, and signature rebellious streak will speak to every person fighting to belong and fighting for social justice.
