PHOTO Tom Olin?: ADAPT marches down a curvy street, the line snaking back out of sight. All but a couple of people wear their black ADAPT t-shirts with the gold "no steps" logo on the front. Julie Farrar with her "Together Not Apart" sign, and Lillibeth Navarro, with an "Access equals gentler + kinder" sign are at the front of the photo. Behind them are Kim Horton, George Roberts and Mark Johnson. Then Arthur Campbell is guiding the edge of the line from the side, with his grey hair in a headband and pony tail, and next to him a quad with a blue cap sits and Sue Davis is walking toward them. In the next row of marchers is Larry Ruiz and Tommy Malone. Behind them is a woman in a white shirt and behind her is Ken Heard. Behind Ken is a someone walking on crutches with lots of buttons on their shirt. Beside that person a woman (possibly Rhonda Lester) walks and behind her is Jim Parker and Devorah Kappers is pushing someone in a wheelchair. Being pushed by Frank Lozano, Paulette Patterson is riding off to the side of the line, wearing a white t-shirt. Behind her is Lori Eastman and what looks like Rick James and Barb Guthrie.

Bolte said he will be out protesting again today. Kimberly Horton (below, photo 2) gets taken away after her arrest by Sparks police for blocking the entrance to the Sparks casino. The ADAPT handicapped rights group vows to continue picketing until the transit association's convention ends Wednesday. [Headline] 25 arrested on second day of demonstrations [Subheading] Protesters straining nerves, budgets By Faith Bremner Tribune Staff The handicapped protests in downtown Sparks are costing local residents time and money. Time in the sense that police officers who would otherwise be helping local citizens are spending their time keeping the peace on B Street. Money in the sense that the police and the court are working overtime just to keep up with the 100 or so demonstrators who are protesting the American Public Transportation Association's (APTA) convention at the Nugget this week. “ While (the Sparks Police) are out there handling these individuals and if you call 911, the response times change dramatically," Sparks Municipal Court Judge Andy Cray said. The demonstrators come from all over the country and are members of the Denver, Colo. based American Disabled for Accessible Public Transportation (ADAPT). They are demonstrating against APTA because that organization opposes the federal government forcing public transit authorities to install wheelchair lifts on all buses purchased with federal funds. APTA represents public transit authorities around the United States and Canada. In two days of protests, Sparks Police have arrested 72 demonstrators, mostly on charges of blocking fire access to the Nugget, obstructing police officers and assault and battery, Cray said. Most of those arrested Sunday, the first day of the protest, were given warnings and had their fines suspended, Cray said. Those who were rearrested Monday were given three day jail terms and fines ranging from $200 to $500, he said. The arrested were brought into court directly from B Street and checked out by two nurses, then arraigned and transported to jail via a special lift-equipped van, Cray said. The two judges worked until midnight both nights, Cray said, just to handle the crowd. Likewise the sheriff and the police department are working their crews overtime. The Sparks Police have canceled all days off and vacations and during the demonstrations called in all available officers Lt. Tony Zamboni said. "Everybody's tired and we've put in some long hours but morale is still relatively high," Zamboni said. Likewise, the Nugget is working its security guards overtime, spokesman Parley Johnson said. “I think it's hurting us a little bit but you have to feel sorry for these people,"Johnson said. “It's a tough situation. There but for the grace of God go I.” It has been business as usual at the Nugget, Johnson said, and few customers have been inconvenienced. “Most of our customers didn't realize what was going on," Johnson said. Meanwhile, ADAPT co-founder Mike Auberger complained that the Washoe County Consolidated Jail is unprepared to house the handicapped prisoners. As of this morning about 30 protesters were still in jail, Auberger said. Auberger, a quadriplegic, was arrested Sunday and posted bail and was released late Monday night. "There were only three people handling 30 people's medical needs and helping them to transfer from their chairs to the beds or the bathroom, the litany of what it takes for a disabled person to survive," Auberger said. “Most of the nurses and staff at the jail clearly had never dealt with disabled people. They had no idea what you were asking for." But Sheriff Vince Swinney denied that the jail is unprepared to handle the handicapped. “Somebody should realize this is what these people want to do," Swinney said of the group that has staged numerous similar demonstrations around the country. “If they were treated like royalty, they wouldn't be happy. And the media is playing it up 100 percent. I really think that we who have been here and will continue to be here deserve some credibility.“

San Francisco Examiner TITLE: Disabled protest for more funds for home attendants Subheading: Entrances to downtown Marriott are blocked By Wylie Wong of the Examiner Staff, October 19, 1992 About 300 demonstrators in wheelchairs blocked the entrances to the San Francisco Marriott, calling for more funds to allow the disabled to live outside of nursing homes. Sunday's protest was designed to drew attention to the 16 million disabled people who have no choice but to live in nursing homes, said the Rev. Wade Blank, a co-founder Americans Disabled for Attendant Programs Today (ADAPT). The protesters targeted the American Health Care Association, a nursing-home trade group whose members are staying at the Marriott on Fourth and Minion streets while attending a convention at nearby Moscone Center. ADAPT wants 25 percent of the $27 billion paid to nursing home operators under the Medicaid program to be used to help disabled people pay for personal attendants. But the Bush administration and the health care association, which represents about 10,000 nursing homes, oppose the plan. Only $600 million of that money currently is used for in-home attendant care, said ADAPT co-founder Michael Auberger. Police escorted the protesters on the eight-block trip from their Market Street hotel, and watched as they barricaded themselves at the Marriott's entrances. The protesters chanted. "Down with nursing homes, up with attendant care.” Police were able to keep some entrances open for hotel guests. No arrests were made. Kimberly Horton, who lived in a nursing home from age 6 to 21, described her experience as “living in a prison." "They take away your personal dignity," she said. "You had to eat what they put in front of you. They'd get angry at me for wetting my bed, but wouldn't help when I had to go.” Protester Blane Beckwith, a Berkeley resident, has a personal attendant who takes care of his everyday needs, from taking a bath to preparing food. But state budget cuts have slashed eight hours of care per month. As a result, he has only half an hour per week for grocery shopping with his attendant. "No one can shop for groceries in half an hour, My mother helps me, but she's 62 and can't do it forever." he said. Horton, who wants to take writing classes and become a free-lance writer, fear that more budget cutsar will force him to live in a nursing home. "A nursing home is stifling," he said, "You have no social life. You can't work." Conventioneers who walked past the protesters were unimpressed. "I have no argument with wanting more attendant care,” said John Jarrett, who runs a 79-bed nursing home in New York. "But they shouldn't take it from the elderly,” who would be hurt if ADAPT funding plan were implemented, he said. The demonstrators plan to protest the convention through Friday. A police commander said 90 police officers were on hand. “They haven’t been violent,” he said. “They’ve been very cooperative.“ Last week, officers took two hour classes at the Police Academy to learn how to arrest and search disabled people without harming them.

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).
