A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year for Nonfiction

"...an essential and engaging look at recent disability history."- Buzzfeed

One of the most influential disability rights activists in US history tells her personal story of fighting for the right to receive an education, have a job, and just be human.

A story of fighting to belong in a world that wasn't built for all of us and of one woman's activism-from the streets of Brooklyn and San Francisco to inside the halls of Washington-Being Heumann recounts Judy Heumann's lifelong battle to achieve respect, acceptance, and inclusion in society.

Paralyzed from polio at eighteen months, Judy's struggle for equality began early in life. From fighting to attend grade school after being described as a "fire hazard" to later winning a lawsuit against the New York City school system for denying her a teacher's license because of her paralysis, Judy's actions set a precedent that fundamentally improved rights for disabled people.

As a young woman, Judy rolled her wheelchair through the doors of the US Department of Health, Education, and Welfare in San Francisco as a leader of the Section 504 Sit-In, the longest takeover of a governmental building in US history. Working with a community of over 150 disabled activists and allies, Judy successfully pressured the Carter administration to implement protections for disabled peoples' rights, sparking a national movement and leading to the creation of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Candid, intimate, and irreverent, Judy Heumann's memoir about resistance to exclusion invites readers to imagine and make real a world in which we all belong.

Great glitter body spray
Color: Fairy-Diamond, Color: Fairy-Diamond
So cute. Came with extra glitter, I’m assuming lipgloss you can make into glitter lipgloss, a funnel to help pour the glitter. Or re load your spray. The spray performance is nice. Might stick better with some oil before hand? But I like it so far. Worked 6 hours and still had glitter on me for my photoshoot. I sprayed perfume and then glitter. There’s no odor. The amount of quantity of glitter you get seems good for the price. Durability seems good so far but like I said may need some oil or lotion first to help it stick all day.

Troll glitter
Color: Brandy-Rose
Do not spray too much! This glitter is so fine that it dispenses easily from the puff part and you can easily make yourself look like Poppy the troll. We had so much fun with this for prom

Glitter with staying power
Color: Rainy-Rainbow, Color: Rainy-Rainbow
Super fun and sparkly, the color is beautiful, it comes with 2 glue tubes with brushes that you use to rub the glue onto your skin in order for the sparkle to stick better and longer, made a heart shape on my arm, dries fairly quickly and washes off easily when you're done with it It sprays a fine layer and evenly, it's great for building on for more sparkle or to just have a light layer Even without the glue it lasts at least a couple hours with minimal shedding and light use, seems to have good longevity With 2 glue tubes, a refill tub, funnel and the glitter spray bottle I feel $10 is a great value considering everything you get with it, Overall I feel like it's a fantastic product and will buy again!

Decent for the price.
Color: Rainy-Rainbow
The color is pretty, the bottle seems to be working well for now. The atomizer pump is so cute and makes me feel super dainty and girly! I love the xtra refill, the funnel and two glitter glues for makeup looks. The glue is good enough to hold the glitter but not too sticky where it leaves a nasty residue. So that’s a plus and it’s easy to wash off. However, the glitter does not adhere or stay in place on dry skin. I’m assuming it’ll be great to spray on the body if you have some type of oil in for it to adhere too but haven’t tried it yet. Will update next weekend.
