CRIP CAMP FYC (FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION)

Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution is a groundbreaking documentary film that chronicles the history of the disability rights movement in the United States. The film shines a spotlight on a unique summer camp, Camp Jened, which lays the foundation for a community of activists pushing for change in a society that largely marginalizes individuals with disabilities.

Set in the 1970s, the film captures the essence of a transformative experience for its young campers who, despite facing significant hurdles, find their voices and form lasting connections with one another. The camp serves as a microcosm of a larger social movement, illustrating how camaraderie among campers fosters resilience and inspires activism that ultimately contributes to pivotal legislative changes.

The documentary features a wealth of interviews and archival footage, bringing the experiences of those who attended Camp Jened to life. This emotional resonance allows viewers to understand the personal narratives behind the fight for disability rights and the crucial role of community support in effecting social change.

In addition to the backstory of Camp Jened, Crip Camp delves deep into the broader context of the disability rights movement. This includes:

The Rehabilitation Act of 1973: A significant piece of legislation that laid the groundwork for subsequent rights and protections for individuals with disabilities.

The 504 Sit-in: A pivotal protest led by activists, including many from Camp Jened, who occupied a federal building to demand enforcement of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, which prohibits discrimination based on disability.

Personal Stories: The film interweaves personal accounts from various individuals, illustrating how the movement has shaped their lives and the lives of countless others.

One of the film's strengths is its ability to highlight the intersectionality of disability with other social justice movements, showcasing how the fight for equal rights transcends individual issues and aligns with broader goals of equity and inclusion.

The impact of Crip Camp extends beyond just storytelling; it serves as a catalyst for discussion and action, prompting viewers to consider their own roles in advocating for disability rights. The documentary invites audiences to reflect on:

The importance of accessibility: Making sure public spaces, platforms, and services are available and usable by individuals with varying abilities.

Advocacy and allyship: Encouraging those without disabilities to support the movement actively and become allies in combating discrimination.

Continuing the dialogue: Recognizing that the work of the disability rights movement is ongoing and that everyone has a part to play in creating an inclusive society.

As a powerful narrative that combines humor, camaraderie, and a profound sense of social justice, Crip Camp not only educates viewers about the history of the disability rights movement but also inspires hope for the future. The film has received international acclaim and is a vital addition to the canon of works that challenge perceptions of disability and advocate for a more inclusive world.

WHAT YOU GET:

This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.

IMAGES:

All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.

COMPATIBILITY:

Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.

PLATFORM:

Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.

64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.

Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.

MEDIA FORMAT:

Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:

  • Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
  • Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
  • Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.


  • SHIPPING:

    We typically ship all items out within 1-2 business days after payment is received. In regards to the stated shipping and handling, remember that these costs include more than just postage.

    International buyers please email/chat with us to determine if you are eligible for shipping of a specific product. If you are, then international buyers not shipping to an address within the U.S. can expect their orders to take anywhere from 5 days to 4 weeks to be received, depending on how fast/well USPS is moving. Additionally, international orders typically have to go through governmental customs, which can delay the arrival process. Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to buying. Customs fees are normally charged by the shipping company or collected when you pick the item up. These fees are not additional shipping charges.
