VIgalicia interviews Judith E. Heumann
Monday, 22 September 2008 Last Updated ( Monday, 22 September 2008 )
At the end of this summer, we received one of our best friends and supporters at VIgalicia: Judith E. Heumann. 
She is one of the members of that bunch of activists who set up the bases of the Independent Living Movement all around the world during the 70's. She had a post of responsibility during the Clinton's presidency as Assistant Secretary of the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitation Services at the US Department of Education. Currently, she is the Director of the Department of Disability Services in Washington, DC.
During her stay, Judith accepted to be interviewed by us together with Manuel Lobato, member of the ENIL Board, and Anton Novoa, President of VIgalicia. 
From that interview, we made this short video. It is only Judith's interview, in English, but it will be edited again with subtitles in Spanish soon. We are preparing the second video where these three colleagues speak about the present and future of the Independent Living Movement in a friendly chat during a warm summer afternoon.
Watch the video (part 1,2 and 3):
