Being Heumann: An Unrepentant Memoir of a Disability Rights Activist by Judith Heumann, Kristen Joiner

hopeful informative inspiring fast-paced

4.0

The story that is told here is really incredible. I feel like it’s an important story for everyone to read. For me in particular as a special education teacher it was a great reminder about what I do, and it has helped determine my activism in the future. The actions that she took directly affect my students every single day. I can’t wait to watch her film on Netflix as well. I definitely think this should be a book that everyone reads to truly try to understand Intersectionality and the importance of coming together to support each other with  activism and holding the government accountable.
