Detroit Paper Series: "Disabled And Denied"
By Dave Reynolds,
Inclusion Daily Express
December 23, 2005
DETROIT, MICHIGAN--This
week, the Detroit News ran a three-day, 12-part series entitled "Disabled and
Denied".
The series looked at the long-running legal battle between the city's public transportation system and its citizens that have disabilities.
The paper also looked at such wide-ranging issues as barriers to housing, employment, and sidewalks, along with how advocates are making a difference and how the city is complying with the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act.
