HERE’S HOW WE GET THERE
United Spinal Association CEO Vincenzo Piscopo wakes daily to dozens of tasks.
And
they are all focused on making the world a safer, healthier, and more inclusive
place for wheelchair users and all people with disabilities.
In the dozen
years since he joined the disability community and started using a wheelchair
for mobility, Enzo feels everything boils down to civil rights.
“Society allows for the abuse of people with disabilities. It’s so ingrained in our culture’s DNA that we don’t even recognize it,” he says.
He runs through a list
of indignities he regularly experiences, from the inaccessible scale at his
doctor’s office to the limited accessible seating at Braves’ games.
