Disability in America

Elevating the voices of the historically marginalized, like those who identify as disabled, can have the power to shift stereotypes and build a more inclusive future. This program puts a spotlight on the power of representation in storytelling with leaders in the field who are driving change and looks at the state of disability activism 30 years after the Americans with Disabilities Act. Join Washington Post senior writer Frances Stead Sellers on Tuesday, July 13 at 2:30pm to meet the trailblazers paving the way forward.
