Today, I watched the movie “Crip Camp: A disability revolution.” This movie focuses on a group of kids that attended Camp Jened. Camp Jened was a summer camp in Catskills, NY for children with disabilities. This camp was, in a way, a safe space for these children – they got to have a normal teen summer camp experience without people looking at them differently. This movie was focused during the 1990s, so there was a particular stigma around people with disabilities at this time. Essentially, this camp started a movement for disability rights. In my opinion, this movie highlighted the power of like-minded people – when a group of people are determined, they can do anything. Something that stood out to me in this movie were the young ages of some of the campers. It showed me that nobody is too young to make a difference, and it was inspiring to see how when something matters to you, you can make a difference. Overall, I thought this movie was informative and interesting in terms of its progression: it started with a summer camp and turned into a movement. Lastly, I think this movie hit home because as a kid it’s hard to feel like we can actually do something to make the world a better place right now. We don’t always think we have the power to change anything, but as an article in the New York Times once stated “Inspirations that begin in youth can lead to radical, world-changing results.”
