To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, I got the chance to talk to the next generation of activists and advocates in the disability rights movement––they're continuing the work of the activists in @CripCampFilm and I couldn't be prouder of them.
If we want an equitable future, we have to engage in civic life today. Last week, @MichelleObama and @BarackObama surprised some high school students during a @CPSCivicLife virtual town hall and discussed the importance of staying engaged in our democracy during this crisis.
We are not playing, and neither should you. Stop the spread of COVID-19. #StayHomeSaveLives #WeAreNotPlaying @ChicagosMayor
