This is quite informative - Judith Heumann has lead such an impressive life and been involved in so many important democratic processes for disability rights. I learned a lot!
My only note is that I agree with other reviewers who said this is less of a memoir and more of a recounting of her work as an activist. Which is a very good recounting don’t get me wrong, and I am glad she wrote it, but slightly different than what I thought I was getting.
