A documentary about Camp Jened, a groundbreaking summer camp for teens with disabilities that proved so inspiring that a group of alumni joined the radical disability rights movement to advocate for historic legislation changes. The documentary was produced by Barack and Michelle Obama. The screening will include pizza and discussion. It is the 35 Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. When it was signed in 1990 by George H. W. Bush, UCC Pastor Harold Wilke, who was born without arms, was present. The ADA is now under attack with anti-DEI legislation and Medicaid budget cuts.
