DeafBlind woman recognized in a Jeopardy! Clue

Haben Girma, a well-known DeafBlind woman, tweeted last night that she was mentioned as a clue in the Jeopardy! game show. 

The clue said, “Haben Girma, who advocates for disability rights, was the first Deafblind person to graduate from this law school.” 

The right question is…  “What is Harvard?” 

See her tweet about this.

What a great clue, and #disability representation, too!”]

Nice. She was mentioned under the category “Inspiring Women” and was a $400 clue.

Girma wrote a book, “Haben: The Deafblind Woman Who Conquered Harvard Law.” She has been recognized and honored by former presidents Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Her website says she provides “accessibility and diversity training, consulting, and professional speaking services.” For more information about her or her book, the link is below in the transcript.
