Join DREDF, in partnership with the Center for Independent Living (CIL), for an evening of conversation and connection with author, Dara Baldwin, about her journey to become a disability activist and policymaker while facing the reality of the erasure of people of color in the disability rights movement. The event will be held Tuesday, July 28, from 5 to 8 pm PT at the Ed Roberts Campus and online.

 

Dara’s book, To Be a Problem has been described by Dave Zirin, author of The Kaepernick Effect, as “… a revolutionary text from a unique perspective all too ignored in our society. In a time when dehumanization is on the march, to read a book so rooted in our collective humanity is an absolute gift.”
