FOR
DISABILITY ADVOCACY, URBAN DESIGN, TRAVEL AND MORE
When I
started this blog a decade ago, I figured I’d post a few times a month.
It would be
a place to share some photos from the road.
A spot to
publish parts of stories cut by editors.
It would be
a forum to fight for wheelchair access.
It could be
a format for circulating ideas on urban design, architecture and planning.
I never guessed it would have more than 250,000 unique readers.
Nor would I
have thought I’d make more than 2,700 posts and counting.
I certainly
didn’t expect to have readers from more than 100 nations – despite virtually
every post being in English only.
I couldn’t
have dreamed that the entire volume of text would equal more than the word
count of three non-fiction full books.
Or that I
would post so much street photography that it would lead to a gallery show.
The images
here are from Islamic Cairo.
Some of the
mosques, madrassas and markets date to medieval times.
I hope you
can become a follower of my blog.
I hope you can
share its stories demanding better quality of life and built environment for
people with disabilities.
Here are some stories on Universal Design, Inclusive Mobility and the ADA:
