ADAPT FEATURED IN AMERICAN EXPERIENCE HISTORY SHOW

A pretty comprehensive look at the long fight that led up to the ADA. Lots of footage from the ADAPT history museum is featured and several ADAPTers share their take on the struggle. The various roles so many people played to make this happen shows the power of the people united, as well as the power of the pitchfork approach to advocacy. IN Austin it will air March 25 at 8pm.
