The Phoenix Gazette Tuesday, April 7, 1987 Metro Section PHOTO by Rick Giase, The Phoenix Gazette: A man (Rev. Calvin Peterson) is being tipped backwards in his motorized wheelchair by two plainclothes police officers. Peterson has his arm raised in a power fist and is looking off to the side with an angry expression. One of the officers, with dark shades on, is smirking slightly. Beside Peterson another man (Rev. Willie Smith) is standing apparently trying to talk to the officers. Caption reads: Wheelchair protest nets five arrests Two Police officers try to wheel away the Rev. Calvin Peterson as another member of ADAPT (right) appeals to them Monday during a protest outside a downtown hotel.

San Francisco Examiner 10/1/87 Photo by Examiner/Gordon Stone: The frame of the picture is filled with people in wheelchairs, and people standing. All are protesters and in the center is a woman wearing glasses raises her hand in a power fist with a piece of paper in it, above her head. In front of him is a woman laying back in her chair (Laurie ___ from Chicago). Everyone is facing forward. Caption reads: CAROL RAUGUST, WITH FLYER, IS AMONG WHEELCHAIR ACTIVISTS They have a quarrel with public transit officials, convening in S.F. Title: Handicapped activists get day in court By John D. O'Connor OF THE EXAMINER STAFF The Hall of Justice resounded with victory whoops and the whirl of motorized wheelchairs as 43 'handicapped activists arrested for blockading the Powell Street cable car line got their day in court. Protesters used their arraignment Wednesday before Municipal Court Judge Philip Moscone as a platform for a new attack against the American Public Transit Association, which they say has not done enough to provide the handicapped with access to public transit. Moscone allowed designated speakers to address the court after each group of blockaders entered no contest pleas to charges of obstructing a public thoroughfare. The $50 fine the charge carried was dropped as Moscone credited the night the 43 demonstrator spent in jail as "time served." A second charge of failing to disperse was dropped "in the interest of justice," according to Deputy District Attorney Randall Knox. Jane Jackson, who spoke on behalf the first group of 14 wheelchair-bound demonstrators arraigned Wednesday, seized the opportunity to charge APTA with denying handicapped citizens of their civil rights. "It is for this reason that we believe Jack Gilstrap (APTA executive Ace president) should be asked to resign or should be forced to resign," Jackson said. "APTA is not acting in good faith." More than 15,000 public transit officials from around North America attended the four-day convention. Officials of the transit group have said they feel the access question should be handled on a local level. Jackson also said the coalition of handicapped-rights groups, which captured national media attention with four days of protests and blockades across the city, was pulling out of a scheduled meeting with APTA officials Thursday. "It's the only move left open to us," Jackson said later while members of the September Alliance for Accessible Transit and American Disabled for Accessible Public Transportation cheered her and the other blockaders as they exited the courtroom. About 75 wheelchair-bound protesters lined the hallway outside the courtroom, chanting and clapping in approval and support as each group of blockaders were arraigned and allowed to leave. "They're our heroes," said Connie Arnold of San Rafael. "They're standing up for us." During the arraignments, police, sheriff's and emergency medical personnel stood by as defendants were wheeled in or entered the courtroom under their own power. Jennifer Keelan, a 6-year-old girl from Tempe, Ariz., whose bouncy enthusiasm and apparent unconcern over her handicap captivated the press and boosted the resolve of protesters, was wheeled in by a sheriff's deputy and sat writing her name over and over again in a small notebook. Unlike the group's earlier demonstrations, Wednesday's action was peaceful and there were no arrests. Protesters had staged noisy and sometimes violent demonstrations outside the APIA convention at Moscone Center Monday and on the steps of City Hall Sunday night. Handicapped-rights group organizers said Wednesday was their last day in The City as the APTA convention at Moscone Center ended a four-day conference and transit officials left town. But protesters declared the string of rallies and blockades a success. "We made our point," said Marilyn Golden of Oakland. "Now maybe they will listen."

The Daily Sparks Tribune: Thursday, March 23, 1989 - Vol. 77. No. 224 @ 1989 Sparks Tribune Co [Headline] Protesters plan to disrupt convention By Faith Bremner Tribune Staff A national handicapped rights group says it will take over downtown Sparks next month and commit acts of civil disobedience to draw public attention to handicapped accessible public transportation. But American Disabled for Accessible Public Transportation's (ADAPT) specific target will be the American Public Transportation Association (APTA) convention at John Ascuaga's Nugget April 9-13. In 1980, APTA successfully lobbied the federal government to drop a requirement that all public transportation systems that receive federal funds must purchase buses with wheelchair lifts, ADAPT co-founder Mike Auberger said. APTA represents about 450 transit authorities in the United States and Canada, including Citifare which is hosting the convention. "Everything we do will be centered around transportation,” Auberger said in a telephone interview this morning from ADAPT's Denver, Colo. headquarters. “That's the only reason “we're coming to Sparks; We‘re not coming to the city just to inconvenience Sparks.” Auberger said he expected about 150 ADAPT members from all over the country to show up during the convention and do things like chain themselves to city buses and block the entrances to the Nugget. Sparks Police Department spokesman Tony Zamboni said the department is aware of the convention and of ADAPT's plans to protest. He said Sparks Police are in contact with other police agencies around the country that have dealt with the group. "We are here to provide a service and we will protect these person's first amendment rights as well as anyone else‘s," Zamboni said. "We are prepared for the outcome of any situation such as this.“ Sue Hyde, marketing manager for the Regional Transportation Commission which oversees the Citifare operations, said her agency does not plan to change its operations during the convention. Seventy percent of Citifare‘s buses are already equipped with wheelchair lifts and plans to purchase more, she said. Most of the buses that come into downtown Sparks have the lifts, but some of them don’t, she said. “I don't think Citifare should have any problems," Hyde said. "If they block our buses they would be hurting their constituency." Since it was founded six years ago, ADAPT members have experienced 1,000 arrests — all at APTA conventions, Auberger said. "It‘s a varied group, we're all very experienced." Auberger said. "The majority of the people have gone to jail a number of times and stayed in jail for a week at a time. "This is not a group that's afraid of the police. These people are willing to go to jail to make a point." The point to all the demonstrations, Auberger said, is to make life difficult and inaccessible to the APTA conventioneers, just like it is for people in wheelchairs who can't get onto buses. The organization also uses its demonstrations to make the public think about handicapped access to public transportation, Auberger said, even if the public reacts negatively to ADAPT's methods. "(The public) doesn't have to like what we do or support what we do but it‘s important for them to think about the issue,“ Auberger said. It‘s not easy to arrest someone in a wheelchair, Auberger admits. "We've had cases where people were taken out of their wheelchairs and their chairs were left behind" Auberger said. “If the police don't have a van with a lift, they sometimes lift the chairs right into the paddy wagons. "The motorized wheelchairs can weight up to 300 pounds. It's not an easy process."
