Akceptejo / Fotaroj 1903
- With Liberty & Access For All
This is a short demo film by Linda Litowsky that tells about ADAPT and our first campaign for lifts on buses and passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act. It was made to promote a longer film she made so it ends abruptly. However it is a good overview of early ADAPT and has been used in many organizer trainings and presentations. - Video_Incitement Houston
This is a video from the action - Video-Incitement Lansing
This is a video Incitement for the ADAPT action in Lansing MI in 1995. We took on Newt Gingrich, the Michigan Republican party, Governor Engler, and the State Capitol and legislature. - Video-Incitement Atlanta 1996
This is the story, as told in a video Incitement, of ADAPT's national action in Atlanta in 1996. We were fighting for community based services so people don't have to go into nursing homes and other institutions. We were able to get Speaker Newt Gingrich to agree to sponsor our bill, and to get both parties very aware of our issue on the eve of the national election. We challenged the GA Nursing Home Assn and the AHCA (the nursing home lobby group) and pulled off some spectacular actions. - Video Incitement- Las Vegas 1994
Here is the video Incitement story of the ADAPT action in Las Vegas Nevada, 1994, when ADAPT again protested the American Health Care Assn, AHCA, convention there. Closing streets, protesting at the Convention Center and the AHA hotel, ADAPT fought to make the nursing home providers deal with the pain and havoc their industry causes in the lives of people with disabilities of all ages. - US_Capitol_Rotunda_part_2_cap
This is part 2 of the ADAPT Capitol Rotunda protest in support of the Americans with Disabilities Act, ADA. This shows the group preparing for civil disobedience to pressure swift passage of the bill. Over 100 people were arrested at this protest, which gets less attention than the Crawl but was equally intense. The film is open captioned (as are all videos on this museum site). - TimCookInterviewLL
1991 interview of disability rights attorney Tim Cook. A brilliant disability law expert Cook talks here about equality, ADAPT, education and institutionalization of people with disabilities. Tim died too young. - Tim Cook

- Sue Jamieson, the lead attorney in the Olmstead case, at Atlanta Olmstead rally 2009
Sue Jamieson was the lead attorney in the Olmstead v LC and EW case that went to the Supreme Court. - Rotunda part 1
This is part 1 of the story of the ADAPT protest in the Capitol Rotunda to call for passage of the ADA with no weakening amendments. The ADA had become bogged down in the House and there was concern the bill would not pass. The day after the Wheels of Justice March and the Capitol Crawl, ADAPT took over the Rotunda of the United States Capitol building and over 100 people were arrested protesting for our civil rights. This is almost raw footage and gives a real sense of the event as it unfolded. Part 2 of this action is included in the next video Capitol Rotunda part 2. - Real_People_Real_Voices_2006
Abridged version of testimony on getting out of nursing homes and how that changed people's lives for the better. 7 hours of personal stories were shared by people with many kinds of disabilities at ADAPT hearing in Nashville TN in 2006. This video just includes highlights. Original music by D4Dub and Ballad of Josie Evans sung by Johnny Crescendo. - Original Olmstead organizing list 1
The original list used to track states that went on and came off the States' Olmstead Amicus brief (aka the Evil Empire Brief). A handwritten list of states, some crossed off.
