Fighting for Yes is a picture book biography celebrating the life and work of disability rights activist and icon Judith Heumann, highlighting one of her landmark achievementsleading the historic 504 Sitin in 1977.From a very young age, Judy Heumann heard the word No. When she wanted to attend public school, the principal said No. When she wanted her teaching license, the New York Board of Education said No. Judy and people with disabilities everywhere were tired of hearing No.In the 1970s, an important disability rights law, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, was waiting to be signed. Judy and other disability rights activists fought for YES! They held a sitin until Section 504 was signed into law. Section 504 laid the foundation for the Americans with Disabilities Act, which was established thanks in large part to the ongoing work of Judy and her community.Along with a personal reflection from Judy herself, awardwinning author Maryann CoccaLeffler and illustrator Vivien Mildenbergers picture book biography captures the impact and influence of one of Americas greatest living activists.CoccaLefflers straightforward text relates Judys challenges and triumphs . . . Uplifting and stirring. Kirkus ReviewsIllustrations combine gouache painting and digital art to bring Heumann and her allies to life . . . an informative portrait of an underrecognized activist.
