TED English is online dialogues around TED talks! Each 45-minute session will feature a cool and informative TED Talk, coupled with Q & A and discussion about the meaning and language used in the talk. By joining this program you’ll get the opportunity to talk about vocabulary and grammar from the TED talk, react to the topic discussed in the talk, and interact with a huge community of people online through a discussion facilitated by America House’s very own English language Resident!
This event is a part of #AHInclusivityWeek. Join our virtual events during November 30th to December 7th to help build a more inclusive and barrier-free society for persons with disabilities.
Four decades ago, Judith Heumann helped to lead a groundbreaking protest called the Section 504 sit-in in which disabled-rights activists occupied a federal building for almost a month, demanding greater accessibility for all. In this personal, inspiring talk, Heumann tells the stories behind the protest and reminds us that, 40 years on, there's still work left to do.
