One in four adults in the United States has a disability. Yet, disability is often an afterthought for policymakers.
Lauren DeBruicker examines how disability and race intersect within the civil legal system and the impact of systemic racism on Black and Brown people with disabilities. Lauren also recounts the rich history of activism in the disability justice movement and what can be done to expand legal protections for disabled people.
Guest:

Lauren is an active member of the disability community and an advocate for access and independent living in the region.
