Poster for the documentary, “Crip Camp.” 60s-era photo of a smiling shirtless young Black man holding an acoustic guitar over his shoulder, leaning his left hand on a wheelchair in front of him. Using the wheelchair, a young man in a white t-shirt with his legs crossed smiles at camera. They are on a dusty path with several single-story white buildings in the background. Tall green deciduous trees appear behind the buildings. At the bottom is the 2020 Sundance Film Festival award winner graphic and the Netflix logo. Title at the top reads, “From Executive Producers, Barack Obama and Michelle Obama. A Netflix Original Documentary, Crip Camp.” Below this, the tag line, “A disability revolution.”
