MIAMI BEACH CONTRAGULATES ITSELF FOR BEING INCLUSIVE

WHILE ENSURING PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES ARE EXCLUDED

The Marlin Hotel is an historic Art Deco gem in the heart of South Beach.

The Collins Avenue landmark has a nice restaurant.

The City of Miami Beach is content to prevent wheelchair users from entering.

The locked gate blocks wheelchair users from using the marked accessible route.

I know Global Accessibility Awareness Day focuses on digital access for people with disabilities.

But I discovered this on GAAD, so I will go old school and make this GAAD post about physical access.

The city allows buildings to have certificates of occupancy and business to make millions while discriminating against wheelchair users.

Must people with disabilities scream and beg for dignity and access?
