Sad day. I’ll always remember Judy Heumann for her role as one of the leaders of the 504 Sit-In in San Francisco, and for her powerful speech to the HEW

https://youtu.be/52XqupjXHIM?t=668 (a 10 second clip of Judy Heumann's famous lines leading up to "I would appreciate it if you would stop shaking your head in agreement when I don't think you understand what we are talking about.")

and Judy Heumann’s retelling of that moment in a follow-up interview (at 57:27 in the video) here: https://diva.sfsu.edu/collections/longmoreinstitute/bundles/230641
