Southwest Economist Newspapers Sunday, October 5, 1986 page 9 [Headline] Disabled will protest transit system barriers By J. Carole Buckner, staff reporter Chicago – Southwest sider Dennis Schreiber left for Detroit Friday knowing he faced a fair chance of being arrested there for civil disobedience. He was looking forward to it. In the rain-soaked parking lot of Our Lady of the Snows School, 48th St. and Leamington Ave., Schreiber said he told his wife Jackie that the trip is "a dream come true." Schreiber, who is blind, almost completely deaf and partially paralyzed, left with about 30 other handicapped persons, some coming as far away as Denver, Colorado, to protest at the American Public Transit Association's annual convention. For the past three months, Schreiber's group, Disabled Americans for Equality (DARE), has raised money to fund a delegation of protesters to go to Detroit, where they planned to hold a legal march to protest mobility barriers on buses and subways. The Reverend Wade Blank, leader of a contingent of protesters from Denver, called American Disabled for Accessible Public Transportation (ADAPT), said the group's parade permit was revoked this week by Detroit Mayor Coleman Young. Despite the lack of a parade permit and potential for arrests, the disabled group plans to go ahead with it's march, aware of the publicity value to be gained with photos of police dragging wheelchairs into paddy wagons. The groups position, said Schreiber, is "that we want equal access to public transportation and all public facilities" Specifically, the protesters want transportation systems throughout the U.S., especially in cities such as Chicago, to be equipped with lifts for wheelchair users. Mark Mactemes, 37, said he is going on the six day journey and demonstration because he needs to use regularly scheduled public transportation to work. The Oak Forest resident has multiple sclerosis. "I graduated college in 1985 and cannot find a job because I can't drive to work and must rely on public transportation." The CTA offers bus service for the handicapped called Dial-A-Ride, "but you must call eight hours in advance and buses (minivans) only run until 10 PM," Jackie Schreiber said. The CTA subcontracts the service to four companies. In the past, CTA officials have refused to install wheelchair lifts on buses, saying the cost is prohibitive. Blank, said similar reasons were given in Denver, but after sustained efforts by handicapped groups, all the cities buses were equipped with lifts. The result has been an increase in handicapped ridership, from a few hundred to 2000 riders per month, he said. Blank said famed 1960s civil rights protester Rosa Parks is scheduled to March with the group on Sunday. In all, more than 300 handicapped persons, mostly in wheelchairs, or expected to demonstrate in Detroit, Blank said.

Gazette Telegraph PHOTO (by Bob Jackson/Gazette Telegraph): A plainclothes officer (a radio in his pocket) and beefy uniformed officer tip Frank McComb back in his manual wheelchair as they load him into a van. The plain clothes guy puts his hand on Frank's head (to prevent bumping it). In the shadows inside you can see another officer crouching next to another wheelchair at the back of the van. The wheelchairs in all these pictures are very old style; the would even look outdated in an airport or hospital now.

McColom was protesting what he sold was McDonald's lack of access for the handicapped. [Headline] Handicapped arrested at McDonald’s By Chris Cobler, GT Staff Writer Colorado Springs police arrested 11 people protesting what they called a lack of accessibility for the handicapped at McDonald's restaurants Friday. The protest, at McDonald’s downtown restaurant, 207 N. Wahsatch Ave., was part of a nationwide action involving the fast food chain. [The page is torn here. Missing words are filled in in brackets, where possible.] The protest was the second in two days by about two dozen wheelchair-bound members of the Access Institute, a Denver based national organization for the [handicapped.] Denver police arrested [several people] Thursday in a similar protest [at another] McDonald’s restaurant there. [The demonstrators] wheeled their chairs [...] entrances to the parking lot at [the Wahsatch] Avenue McDonald's about [....] Police arrested the 11 an hour later on suspicion of obstruction of traffic when they refused to move from a city alley behind McDonald's. “The plan today is to make people aware that McDonald's doesn't have a national policy of accessibility,” said Bob Conrad, a community organizer QC the Atlantis Community in Denver, which is affiliated with the Access Institute. Conrad said the the protesters are seeking three changes at McDonald's: remodeling of existing restaurants for access for the disabled, such access to be constructed at all new restaurants and for the company to include disabled people in 10 percent of all its advertisements. Robert Keyser, director of media relations for McDonald‘s Corp., Oak Brook, Ill., said in Colorado Springs Friday that his company has talked with Access Institute for the past six months and planned to meet with the group Tuesday in Denver. The protests of the past two days are not a show of good faith by the group, Keyser said. McDonald’s is eager to learn from the group about ways to improve its restaurants, but is not prepared to immediately satisfy all requests, Keyser said. “I think it's irresponsible to make demonstrations without being as completely educated as possible about the way a major company like ours does business," said Keyser, who flew to Colorado Springs Friday from the McDonald's corporate headquarters near Chicago. “It’s going to be a two-way dialogue." Representatives of the McDonald's franchises in the Springs area declined to answer questions about the dispute and See 11 ARRESTED Page A2

[Headline] Handicapped criticize lack of support By Robert Palomares, El Paso Herald-Post A group of protesters chained their wheelchairs to the doors of the McDonald's restaurant on Piedras Street and I-10 to protest the chain's “lack of commitment” to handicapped people. Before his wheelchair was locked to door handles Friday, El Pasoan Jim Parker said that although McDonald’s provides funding for disabled people, the commitment doesn't include making the restaurants accessible to the handicapped. "McDonald's has raised money for disabled people, but they don't make their restaurants accessible to us” Parker said. “It's like saying, ‘We will give you this money, but you can't eat in our restaurants.”’ he said. “This doesn’t mean they are exempt from providing us accessibility." said Mike Auberger of Denver. Robert Keyser, a spokesman for McDonald's Corp. also was in El Paso for the protest. Keyser said the protesters are not accurate when they say that the restaurants do not provide accessibility for handicapped people. “Since 1979. McDonald’s standard building designs provide accessibility to the handicapped, even though local codes do not necessarily call for it.” Keyser said. "In new construction table heights are considered" Keyser said. “We're not saying the restaurants should be modified overnight," said Bob Conrad, another protester from Denver. “But certainly new construction should have handicapped accessibility plans.” Auberger, Conrad and others have traveled from city to city, protesting at McDonald’s restaurants. The protesters say the height of the tables in the restaurant make it necessary for those in wheelchairs to sit in the restaurant's aisles. “So far, these people have not made an attempt to talk to us,” Keyser said. “These people are using McDonald's to make a political statement. We don't do business as a result of threats,” he said. The atmosphere inside the restaurant remained calm during the protest although customers did not know what was going on. The protesters said they believed the action was successful and after about an hour unlocked themselves and left the restaurant. Keyser said that McDonald's provides accessibility, “and will continue to work on ways to make our restaurants even more accessible, including improvements such as tables that are more convenient for our disabled customers,” he said.
