You're listening to Comedy Central. When 60 Minutes premiered in September 1968, there was nothing like it. This is 60 Minutes. It's a kind of a magazine for television. Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives. But that's all about to change. Like none of this stuff gets looked at, that's what's incredible. I'm Seth Done of CBS News, listened to 60 Minutes, a second look on Apple podcasts starting

September 17th. March 4, 2020. From Comedy Central's World News headquarters in New York. This is the Daily Show with Trevor Noah, Ears Edition. Welcome to the Daily Show, everybody. Thank you so much for shooting in. Thank you for coming out. Thank you so much for coming out. Take a seat, everybody. Take a seat, let's make a show. I'm Trevor Noah.

Our guest tonight is an amazing woman who has spent her entire life fighting for human rights and protections for disabled people. Judith Human is joining us, everybody. You really want to listen to an amazing story. Also on tonight's show, the Democratic race is down to the final two. Jurassic Park is real and Louis Black doesn't want to see pictures of your kids. So let's catch up on today's headlines. Let's kick it off with the coronavirus.

The disease is now officially in 85 countries and it has over 95,000 confirmed cases. And it's the reason even white people have switched to the fist bump. And explode. Now here in New York, because the city is so crowded, the risk of coronavirus is especially dangerous. Because you see, if corona can make it here, it can make it anywhere. And that's why city officials are taking action. The MTA is stepping up its cleaning efforts

to prevent the spread of the coronavirus on public transit. Workers are disinfecting 427 subway stations, wiping down the turnstiles, handrails, and ticket vending machines daily. In addition to that daily cleaning, the MTA says its full fleet of subways, trains and buses will be sanitized every 72 hours. That's right, New York is trying to keep the subway clean to protect riders from spreading coronavirus, which is a noble instinct, but good luck trying to keep the New York City

subway system clean. Yeah, you can actually that paper towel screaming, Ah! And by the way, maybe I'm just noticing it now, but like, was not the only one who was like, wait, now they're cleaning the subway? What were they doing before? What were they doing before? Oh, well, now we'll clean it every 72? What were you doing before? Although, that video is a thii actually looks like we're cleaning up so we can impress the coronavirus when it arrives.

Yeah, so the coroner is going to come on the subway like, wow, is this for me? But for real though, everyone on the subway is taking the threat seriously. If you ride the trains, you know what I'm talking about. People are avoiding handrails, the rats are wearing little hazmat suits. Yeah, even the subway masturbators have switched from lotion to Purel. Yeah. It burns, but it's responsible. And remember, you have to do it long enough to sing happy birthday twice. All right, let's move on. Because while humans are worried about getting wiped off the planet, there's another species that might be coming back. Scientists say that they've discovered dinosaur DNA along with other biological material in a fossilized skull in Montana. Now the skull belonged to a hypacrosaurus which was a plant-eating duck-built dinosaur which has been extinct for around 66 million years.

Now DNA is only expected to survive a million years. So if the discovery is confirmed, it would change our understanding of biology. Okay, it may change your understanding of biology. I already didn't know any of that shit. What I do understand is for the first time ever they found actual dinosaur DNA. And guys, if we have dinosaur DNA, we have to make Jurassic Park. I mean, yeah, no look, I know, I know we've seen the movies, I know how it's going to end, but those first two days are going to be dope.

It's going to be so much fun. Like, if my options are dying from coronavirus or a velociraptor, I know what I'm choosing. Yeah, gas up that bubble thing. Let's do this, baby. You know, I actually feel bad for dinosaurs if we bring them back. Because everyone assumes that if they'll return, they'll kill us and take over the world. But shit has changed, my friends. Yeah, the fast food industry does not mess around.. thiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to to to to to to to toe. toe. toea. toea. toeaaa. toeaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. toea. toea. toea. toea. toea. the. they'll kill us and take over the world. But shit has changed, my friends. Yeah. The fast food industry does not mess around. Yeah.

Once Popeyes, she's a big meaty animal walking around. Yeah, it's two weeks until we're all like, love that, T-Rex from Popeyes. And imagine, can you imagine what do we like for a dinosaur? Because we're always like, dinosaurs could come back, but we are expecting them. For them, if they come back in modern times, there's one, the first one, looking around, like, everything is so different. There's cities, there's cars, and I don't understand. Oh, Bernie, hey, Bernie, good to see you again.

Hello, Cole. We need to talk. I need your help. Did you pass Medicare for all? getting close we're getting there And finally some news from the tech world if you're worried about being canceled because of your old tweets well help is on the way Twitter is starting to test tweets that disappear after 24 hours the company is calling the new format fleets because of their short-lived nature. The feature is similar to Instagram stories and snaps on Snapchat. Fleets won't be available to be retweeted and won't have likes, but people can respond to them.

That's right. Soon, you'll be able to post tweets that get deleted automatically after 24 hours, which means the Oscars can have a host again. Yay! And I think more apps should incorporate this feature. You know, like they should say if you send a text message to someone you like, but they don't reply, that message should also disappear automatically because I'm not a loser. Just going to leave me on a red. And as much as I like this idea, I think there are a few ways that Twitter can improve it even more.... Like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. And, I thi. And, I thi..... And, I thi. And, I, I thi. And, I, I, I, I thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thiiiiiiii. thii. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. I thi me on the red. And as much as I like this idea, I think there are a few ways that Twitter can improve

it even more. Like they should say if you send a tweet after midnight, it automatically deletes itself after two minutes, yeah? No one says anything good at that time. They should also have another feature that if the president sends a tweet, they should delete. They should be sitting there like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like have to disappear. They'd just be sitting there like, all these Mexicists. All these Mexica...

All these Mexica... I'm hungry. All right, that's it for the headlines. Let's move on the Feeke Wednesday. So let's catch up on the fallout of the biggest voting nights in the primaries in another installment of World War D. Going into Super Tuesday, the Democratic field had been narrowed down to four main candidates, which is a long way from the Democratic field had been narrowed down to four main candidates,

which is a long way from the original 6,000. And as the dust began to settle, it became clear there were two winners and two losers. Elizabeth Warren, one of the nights losers. You see, she failed to pick up a single state. And to add insult to injury in her home state of Massachusetts, she came in third. Yeah, which is pretty rough. It's like if you came home to find your parents had replaced you with another child. Just be like, sorry, honey, we'd like Joe Biden to be our daughter now.

But she wasn't the only one with a disappointing evening. Yeah, another candidate who hit a low point was Mike Bloomberg, former New York mayor and best person to sit behind at a concert. Because after spending the GDP of a small country on his campaign, his quest for the nomination ended in failure. We come in with his Fox News Alert, Super Tuesday made for a super shake-up. Democrat Mike Bloomberg today dropped out of the race after his dismal showing last night. Yesterday was a disaster for Bloomberg. He spent more than 500 million

dollars and won only a few dozen delegates. Last night campaigning in Florida, Bloomberg tried to sound upbeat. No matter how many delegates we win tonight, we have done something no one else thought was possible. That's right, we spent half a billion dollars to absolutely eat shit. They said it couldn't be done, but we did it. We did it. I'm not gonna lie. I still can't believe Mike Bloomberg spent 500 million dollars to not be

president. No, like, I'm also not gonna be the president, but I spent nothing. No, so in a also not going to be the president but I spent nothing. I... No, so in a way I feel like I saved 500 million dollars, you know? That really is, that's how I feel. And the funny thing is, the funny thing is, the funny thing is, right before he dropped out, Bloomberg bought more TV airtime that he doesn't need anymore. But I was thinking, like, since he's already paid for it, he should use it. He should just come on TV and share his random thoughts.

Hi, I'm Mike Bloomberg. Have you ever noticed you've never seen birds having sex? Kind of weird, huh? Anyway, see you guys in the next ad break. You should just do that the whole time. Now the reason Bloomberg is dropping out now, after just one bad night, is that you must remember he entered the race to be the moderate alternative to Bernie Sanders. But last night, the voters were very clear that they already know who they want their moderate candidates to be.

The night belonged to Joe Biden. They don't call Super Tuesday for nothing. The former vice president with a massive comeback on the biggest night of the primary so far. A fired up Joe Biden celebrating his historic night, racking up a string of commanding victories, including a clean sweep of states in the south, and a stunning win in Delegate Rich, Texas.

The press and the punnits are declared a campaign dead. Tell that to the folks in Virginia. North Carolina. Alabama. Tennessee. Oklahoma. Arkansas. Minnesota.

Hey. Hey. That's a Joe Biden we haven't seen in a while. Arkansas, Minnesota! Hey! That's a Joe Biden we haven't seen in a while. Look at him, I'm smiling, full of energy, naming states that actually exist. No, because let's be honest, we were all waiting for him to give a shout out to pencil chucets. I'm serious, I don't think I've seen Biden this happy. Since that time Obama told him how to ride a bike. This has been a while. I mean, I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I don't think I've seen Biden this happy.

Since that time Obama taught him how to ride a bike. This has been a while. I mean... And of course, of course, no Joe Biden's speech would be complete without a few moments where the Wi-Fi dropped out. It's a good night, and it seems to be getting even better. By the way, this is my little sister, Valerie, and I'm Jill's husband. Good night. And it seems to be getting even better. By the way, this is my little sister, Valerie, and I'm Jill's husband. Oh no, this is the, oh you switched down me.

This is my wife, this is my sister, they switch down to me. Oh, Joe. Really? Joe Biden called his sister, his wife? That's an awkward mistake. And if you are going to talk about your sister wife, you th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, and th, and th, and th, th, and th, and th, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, thi, and thi, and I thi, and I thi, and I thi, and I th. And, and I th. And, and I th. And, and I th. And, and I th. And, and I th. And, and I th. And, and th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. Really? Joe Biden called his sister, his wife? That's an awkward mistake. And if you are going to talk about your sister wife, you should have done it sooner because then you could have won Utah.

Yeah. Oh, and by the way, hi, I'm Mike Bloomberg. I was thinking, how does a train turn around? Anyway, see you guys next ad break. Now, the sister wife thing was just a silly gaff that didn't derail the night. What did cause a bit of concern was when two protesters stormed the stage. During Biden's speech, protesters rushing the stage. You see it they are coming within feet of the former vice president and Dr. Jell Biden.

His wife, one woman was swiftly removed by the former vice president's bodyman. Then moments later, see it again, a second protester storming onto the stage. Simone Sanders, his senior advisor, she just comes out of nowhere, flies on stage and rips one of the protesters off. Dr. Jill Biden, protecting her husband by shuddling off a protester that was storming the stage, her response, I'm a Philly girl. Yo, yo, yo, yo, y'all. Dad, Jill Biden, you see that? that stepped in and blocked that protester like a white lady, Jackie Chan.

I mean, I knew she was a doctor. I just didn't know her PhD was an ass whipping. That was amazing. And it it it it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, thi thi thi thi thi thi thi- thi- thi- thi- thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-s, thi-s, thi-s, th-s, thi-s, th. thi-a, th. We's thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-a, thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s, thi-s, thooanananananan, thoan, thoan, thoan, thea'-s.. know her PhD was an ass-whipping. That was amazing. And it wasn't just Biden's wife. Yeah, he's senior campaign advisor, Simone Sanders. Did you see that? She handled that protest like a professional bodyguard. Hell, Biden's got more women protecting him than Tachala. Like, he's just killing it out here.

No wonder he's winning the black vote. So overall overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, overall, over th th tho, over tho, th tho, tho, tho, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thi, thi good night for Biden. But don't forget, this contest is far from over. Because this race is all about winning delegates, not just states, but delegates. And even with his good night last night, Biden is still basically neck and neck with Bernie in the delegate count. And up until this point, these two have been super friendly on the campaign trail, laughing, hugging at the debates. But something tells me, those days this this this this this this this thi thi thi is thi is thi is thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi is thi thi thi thi thi is far th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. th. thi th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. th. th. thi thi thi thi thi.

This c' thi. thi. thi. thi. thate the the the the tooooooooooo the the the the the the the the the the the the, these two have been super friendly on the campaign trail, laughing, hugging at the debates. But something tells me, those days might be over. This morning, it's now a two-man race.

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders is already sharpening his attacks against Biden. One of us in this race led the opposition to the war in Iraq. You're looking at them. Another candidate voted for the war in Iraq. One of us has spent his entire life fighting for the war in Iraq. One of us has spent his entire life fighting against cuts in Social Security, wanting to expand Social Security. Another candidate has been on the floor of the Senate calling for cuts to Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and Veterans Program. That's right. One of us is a bitch ass.

The other person is me. You know who I'm talking about. Spread the word. Yeah, people, you can see. The gloves are officially off. The dentures are in. And things are about to get messy between these two. Not just because there's Vicks vapor up everywhere, no, because this is the home stretch

to find out who will be the Democratic nominee. And Bernie, if you're going to attack Joe Biden, I wish you the best of luck. But remember not to get too close, because then you'll have to deal with Joe. We'll be right back. When 60 Minutes premiered in September 1968, there was nothing like it. This is 60 Minutes premiered in September 1968, there was nothing like it. This is 60 Minutes. It's a kind of a magazine for television. Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives. You're rolling? But that's all about to change.

Like none of this stuff gets looked at. That's what's incredible. I'm Seth Done of CBS News. Listen to 60 Minutes, a second look, starting September 17th. Wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome back to the Daily Show. When a news story falls through the cracks, Lewis Black catches it for a segment we call back in Black. Let's talk about kids. I hate them. They're loud, they're clumsy, and their hands are always covered in jam. They didn't even eat a sandwich. The jam is just there. But in this age of social media, the kids aren't the problem. It's their god-dam

From babies first bath to those toddler temper tantrums. Parents are sharing more about their kids online than ever before. 92% of kids under the age of two already have a digital footprint, meaning photos and personal information about them already exist online. Some call this sharenting. This is when parents actively share their child's digital identity. Wow. Sharonting. What fun! I could just sharent in my pants right now! But that's right, parents are sharing every stinking, soul-sucking moment of their kids' boring lives.

Think about it. What do babies do? They shit, they scream, they pass out. If I wanted that I'd go to Mardi Gras. At least there, the boobs aren't for feeding. But turns out sharenting isn't just annoying. It could also ruin your kid's life. Sharenting is no joke. More than 140,000 children are victims of identity theft each year and the number keeps growing as more information is shared across social media. You might think posting a birth announcement with your baby's name and date of birth is safe but if you're also sharing your maiden name and location that's enough to open a bank account or credit card in your

the infant's name and chances are your child won't discover it till they're much older, when they apply for a student loan or that first credit card. You see what you've done, you oversharing shitheads? You screwed your kid's credit. Instead of a visa, they'll be trying to pay with a nude photo of them sitting in a pumpkin.

Plus, how dare you rob them of the experience of ruining their own credit? That's a right of passage. But it's not surprising that after living in this oversharing world, the kids have had enough. Parents and grandparents facing backlash from their children were oversharing on social media. 14-year-old Lillian asked her mother not to post any photos of her without permission, but her mom Kate admits she just couldn't resist. I knew she didn't want me to share them. I justified it by saying, oh, it's fine, it's a cute.

Like, why wouldn't she want me to share that, or why would she care? I thought she looked cute. But that's not really the issue, is it? Quick, get your camera mom. You'll want to capture this magical moment when your daughter decided to hate you forever! You know you failed as a parent when you're getting lessons in online responsibility from a goddamn teenager. These are the people who would French kiss a taser for Tick-Tock. But look, kids, kids talking to your parents isn't going to be enough. They're not going to stop until you show them what it's like to be on the receiving

end of oversharing. So here's my solution. If they're going to post your private moments, you post their private moments. Like how about a photo of Daddy going potty? Or surprise your mommy with an adorable snapshot during bath time. And the next time you tag your dad on Instagram, be sure to include his social security number. Happy 40 if pops, your age may be going up, but your credit is going down. Trevor.

Newish Black, everybody. We'll be right back. When 60 Minutes premiered in September 1968, there was nothing like it. This is 60 Minutes. It's a kind of a magazine for television. Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives. But that's all about to change. Like none of this stuff gets looked at. That's what's incredible. I'm Seth Done of CBS News. Listen to 60 Minutes, a second look on Apple podcasts starting September 17th. Welcome back to the Daily Show, everybody. My guest tonight is a lifelong civil rights advocate

for people with disabilities. She's also the author of Being Human, an unrepentant memoir of a disability rights activist. And she's featured in the upcoming Netflix documentary, Krip Camp. Please welcome, Judith Human. Thank you so much for being here. Can I just say, reading this book. I expected to be impressed by it, but I wasn't quite expected for how much of a badass you would be.

No, because you don't just advocate for people with disabilities, but you fight for them, and you fight for them with a passion. Welcome to the show. Before I get into my first question, I guess what really blew my mind about your story is that I specifically have taken for granted so many things in life that I feel like we're always there. Ramps, you know, for getting into stores, you know, ramps that help people get into buses when traveling. All measures that we put in place to help everybody be part of society. You lived in a world where that wasn't true, and you fought to make those changes. What was that world like before the world we live in today?

So I grew up in Brooklyn, all of you from Brooklyn, and at that time, so I was born in 1947. I had polio in 1949. There were no laws. There were no federal laws that made it illegal to discriminate against many people. Obviously the Civil Rights Act in the US didn't come about till 1964 and the disability community was not included in that. So my world was a, there were no motorized realtors at that time because the technology wasn't there. Right.

And so I lived in a neighborhood where there were small private homes and I couldn't get across the street by myself because there was a step on either side. And still a problem today, housing is not necessarily accessible. So you'll see in the book where I talk about going from my parents' house to my neighbor's house and having to scream into the house to ask my friend to come out and play. But as I got older, it became a bigger problem because the school in our neighborhood was not accessible.

My mother took me to that school, PS 198. At that time, it wasn't accessible. After the laws came into being in 1981 it was renovated the school became accessible but the principal denied me entrance into the school because I couldn't walk and he said I could be a fire hazard but said not to worry because the Board of Education would send a teacher to my house which they did for a total of two and a half hours a week for the first, second, third and half of the fourth th th th th th th th th th the fourth the fourth th the the th th th th th th th. th th. th th. the th. th. th. th. th. th of th. th. In th. In th. the. In thi thi. In the. In the. In the. In the. In the. In the. In the. In the. In the. In the. In the. In the. In the. In th. In th. In th. In th. In th. In th. In th. In th. In th. In th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the the the the thea. thea. thea. thea. the thea. thea. thea. the thea they did for a total of two and a half hours a week for the first, second, third, and half of the fourth grade. So I think you can see that the landscape has changed in many ways.

Movie theaters weren't accessible. I went to a Chinese restaurant once with a group of friends in wheelchairs and the manager told us we had to leave. And that's when I get really fired up. So there really is, I, it kind of comes out of me and I thought, we're not leaving. But I can't just kind of say we're not leaving. the police. So I said, call the police.

And the guy was like, and I said, we're not leaving, call the police. And of course he didn't call the police. And then we stayed there. But I think what's really important. Yeah. It feels like that's been the story of your life, though, is defiantly, you know, reminding people or even exposing to people how many obstacles so many people in our society face.

You know, as an able-bodied person, I take so many things for granted. We take things for granted. I call you non-disabled. I call you non-disabled. Oh, I never know which term it is, to be honest. I call you non-disabled because we also, because the likelihood of you're acquiring a disability temporarily or permanently is statistically very high. Did you just threaten me? Yes, definitely.

We take for granted though, either way, how little it changes our lives if we don't have disabilities, versus how much of an impact it makes positively in other people's lives. Children can go to school, children can meet with friends and associate. People can go to work. People can live independently. You realized that there was a deficiency in America at that time, and there's still a lot of work to be done. The protest that you that you helped put together, though, was something no one had ever thought of before.

We saw a little bit of it in that clip, but you decided to shut New York down basically. This is a very funny story. I have a lot of funny stories, but anyway. So President Nixon had vetoed the Rehabilitation Act, which has this important set of laws in it under Title V. And we had organized a demonstration, a demonstration, but the – a demonstration, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, th, th, th, th, but, th, th, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, the the the thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, but, but, but you, but you, but you, but you, but you, but you, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the, but, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, th Act, which has this important set of laws in it under Title V. And we had organized a demonstration in Manhattan outside a federal building, but because the buses weren't accessible and the trains weren't accessible, we weren't able to get anybody to go out and scope out this building. Well, it turns out this building is probably the only building in the city

where there's virtually no traffic around it. And we were having a demonstration and we went and sat in the street and nobody really cared because there were hardly any cars. And so, but the police were there and they said, what would you like? And they wanted us to leave. And I said, well, where is Nixon headquarters? So the officer literally called in and said, where is Nixon headquarters? So we took the 50 of us and we got over

to Nixon Headquarters, it was on Madison Avenue. It was completely unplanned. And so there we were, 50 of us, right. From Brooklyn and Queens and Manhattan and the Bronx, and we decided, okay, we're going to shut down the streets. And what you didn't show in the clip is Ann Coppolo, who is a little bit more than three feet tall, who's talking about how there we were, like shutting off all of the Madison Avenue area.

Then we pulled back because it was a little scary with all these trucks, pissed off about how we were shutting down the city, but nonetheless we were able to do it. But what I think is really important about my story is that my story isn't my story. So my story is really the story of many other people. And Kristen Joyner, who helped me write this book because it wouldn't have come to being without her. Friends of mine with disabilities living in different parts of the world are also talking about how this is their story.

Because the issue of discrimination and oppression and how our lives have been limited and how people are really gaining back our voices. And I think one of the important parts of the film, CRIP camp that people will see, is a camp where disabled kids went together and how, you know, we went to a camp and we had fun, but we also really use it as an opportunity to be together because in so many ways,

disabled people are isolated from each other. And so the camp really allowed us to begin to fantasize what we wanted the world to look like, and then also began to question why things weren't happening. And I think that really has been the crux of what's gone on in the United States and South African countries around the world, where people have finally said, we are not going to tolerate this anymore. It's been 30 years now since now, th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thia thia' thia' tolerate this anymore. It's been 30 years now since the American Disabilities Act was passed.

Many would feel like everything has been done and everyone has access to what they need. What do you still feel needs to be improved specifically in the United States? So I think the United States and around the world, one of the big issues is that people with disabilities need to feel proud of who we are. We need not to be ashamed of who we are. Many, many people with disabilities have invisible disabilities, like epilepsy or diabetes or depression or anxiety or whatever the disability may be. And people are frequently afraid of speaking out because of the disability may be, and people are frequently afraid of

speaking out because of the stigma. And what we find when we start speaking up about who we are with pride and really ownership that we have a right to be equal members of our society wherever we live, that really makes a change. So I would say that the law is great, needs more implementation, more technical assistance. There are other people their stia stiiiiii their their the sti. And their their their their their their their their sti. And their sti. And thi. And their sti. And thi. And thi thi their sti. And their sti. And their sti. And their their their their sti.

So I would say that the law is great, needs more implementation, more technical assistance. There are other provisions of laws that we need to have. But fundamentally, we as disabled people and as allies, like I know you are, because you've done some great work on your program.

Mental Health piece that you did was fantastic. Thank you. Thank you. that you did was fantastic. That's really, I think, what the objective is, that we as disabled people need to band together, speak out against depression or discrimination against anyone, and that needs to be the norm. And I want to just also say, you know, I live in D.C. And the metro there, some of the

most frequent users of the elevators are men and women who have babies and baby carriages. So I think we really need to also look at the kinds of accommodations that theoretically have been made for disabled people actually benefits so many other people. And people don't even realize why they're there. That's really beautiful. I, honestly, I love many other people. And people don't even realize why they're doing. That's really beautiful. I, honestly, I loved every part of your story because of how fierce it is, because of how interesting it is, because of how much you learn. I mean, I learned about stories in and around the disabilities act, the story of America, and I learned that there

was once a time in New York when there was no traffic on some streets. So thank you so much for being on the show. I appreciate you so much for being here.
