How St. Louisans with disabilities push for a more equitable world for all

from St. Louis on the Air

Thirty five years after its signing, the Americans with Disabilities Act has led to changes in schools, work, and public spaces.

They also illustrate what remains to be done. Guests Lori Becker, Raven McFadden, and Seyoon Choi talk about their classroom, workplace, and social experiences as children and adults living with a disability in St. Louis.
