ADAPT (372)
A large crowd of protesters fill most of the street in front of a large city building. Most are in wheelchairs but there are walking people there too, as well as camera people and other media types. In a corner of the foreground a group of police officers in dark uniforms and caps, cluster in formation facing the protesters. The protesters are ignoring them. George Cooper (in a manual chair and white hat) talks with two other wheelchair users. Behind them you can see left shoulder of George Roberts (in green T-shirt) being pushed by someone. A woman in a wheelchair with a child is behind him, and behind her and a man in a yellow t-shirt is Jim Parker with a white headband, back to the camera. To his left is Don Clubb in a white T-shirt. Behind a man in a purple t-shirt, over his head you can see Kathy Thomas with short grey hair, and beside her is Loretta Dufriend in a green shirt.

A sun logo The Arizona Republic copyright 1987 The Arizona Republic Tuesday, April 7, 1987, Phoenix Arizona 2 PHOTOs. Top photo by Sean Brady/Republic: In the foreground two plain clothes police men tip someone in a power wheelchair back on their back wheels. One is in the back holding the push handles and looking careful but determined. The other is leaning forward reaching for something around the footrests, perhaps the breaks. The person in the wheelchair has their hands in their lap by their side. To their left another plain clothes police man is tipping another power wheelchair user [George Roberts] onto his back wheels. George is wearing mirror sun glasses and grimacing, his feet crossed as his legs spam. To George's left another plain clothes officer is holding the handles of a woman [Loretta DuFriend] in a power chair and watching his comrades with amazed expression. Behind these two is a TV cameraman filming. On the sidewalk behind all this other ADAPT protesters sit; some are inside the area the police has taped off, others are just outside the tape. Lower photo by AP: Four ADAPT protesters [Lonnie Johnson, Rand Metcalfe, George Roberts and Stephanie Thomas] sit in a row, slightly smiling and holding out one arm with a fist and their thumb or finger extended. Lonnie has a sign that reads "A PART OF, NOT APART FROM" All wear their dark ADAPT T-shirts with the no steps logo. Handicapped get heave-ho Phoenix policemen AI Ramirez, A.J.
