CELEBRATING THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE ADA -- Part 14

WITH A DOZEN DAYS OF RANTS ABOUT DISCRIMINATION



I have been saying for a quarter century that Urban Design is broken. 

Too many of its practitioners create brand new things that are barriers to wheelchair users, blind people, deaf people. 

We must fix the environment, not the person.

People are fine just the way they are.

"Normal" is not 5-foot-10, athletic and age 25.

Normal is a range of physical conditions and abilities in human being.

It is as diverse as the sea, dessert, forest, lake, jungle, river, mountain, valley and canyon are in nature.
