From The White House to Creator! Judy Heumann, often called “the mother” of the disability movement, has been a disability rights legend and activist since the early 1970s and has been present at almost every significant development and turning point in the movement.
On today’s #BeyondDisability episode, we’re incredibly honored to speak with Judy about her career shift from The White House to social media. We’ll also learn why she thinks social media is the best platform for Disabled and Non-Disabled creators to be an effective change in politics and media.
So, let’s jump into this episode as we explore the past, present, and, hopefully, bright future of the disability rights movement.
Judy’s #BeyondDisability episode will also be available to watch on Whalar’s YouTube channel.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
