Rocky Mountain News Wednesday morning April 6, 1977 [Headline] Jeffco health chief says new tests show higher peril from Flats plant 4 PHOTOS FOR THE NEWS BY TIM SPANGLER: First photo (top left) is of a man in a dark jacket (James Chidlaw) standing and tipping over another man (Dennis Wilcox) in wheelchair; his right front and back wheels are off the ground and the standing man is holding the back of his chair. They are in a parking lot with a large white building behind them. In the background other people are standing or walking in the distance. A woman standing near them watching has her hands up. The man in the wheelchair (Wilcox) has a big beard, glasses and a hat with a brim. He is wearing a striped shirt, and the woman in front of him has bell bottoms on. His chair appears to be a motorized wheelchair. Second photo (top right), a man (Chidlaw?) in a dark shirt or jacket is on the ground and two other men are reaching downward in his direction, possibly pushing or holding him down. One of them appears to be wearing a work uniform while the other has on a hat with a feather, a turtleneck and bell bottoms. In the background other people seem to be approaching. Third photo (bottom left) shows the man with the feather in his hat and another person starting to lift the man (Wilcox) in the striped shirt up from the ground. His wheelchair is not visible. Another man (Wade Blank) appears to be talking to the man in the dark jacket (Chidlaw) who is now standing. Meanwhile the man in the work uniform has one hand on the jacketed man's back. The fourth photo (lower right) shows a small crowd of people. A man in a dark shirt (Chidlaw?) has his hand up one finger pointing while Wade and the man in the work uniform watch. Something is happening in front of them but it is hard to tell exactly what. Wilcox's arm in the striped shirt is visible from behind someone else, somewhere between ground and wheelchair heights. [Subheading] Demonstrator encounters rough going Parking lot manager James Chidlaw, upper left, pushes handicapped protestor Dennis Wilcox off his lot during demonstration at Denver's federal office complex Tuesday. Wilcox felt to street and fellow demonstrators...(not legible)...law to ground. At bottom, Wilcox is helped up while other protestors angrily....Chidlaw, who later was cited for assault.

They traveled to Phoenix from Denver to participate in an ADAPT protest. subtitle: Disrupt event; ask transit access By Chuck Hawley The Arizona Republic About 100 members of a militant group of wheelchair-bound activists blocked the roads and entrances to Rustler’s Roost on Sunday night in an attempt to stop those attending a steak fry for the American Public Transit Association’s convention. Chanting and carrying place cards members of American Disabled for Accessible Public Transit lined up across the two roads, a stairway leading form a lower parking lot and the doors including the handicapped entrance to the restaurant, which is at the Pointe at South Mountain. Police monitored the protest. The 450 people attending the weeklong convention arrived in six Phoenix buses. Some were forced to scramble up a steep gravel incline and enter through the kitchen. Others walked up the back driveway. “We plan to be here all week and to inconvenience you as much as we can,” called out one protestor, who was blocking the stairs. Earlier in the day, protestor had picketed at the Hyatt Regency, where the conventioneers are staying. The protestors at the restaurant carried placards that said, “Police wagons accessible; buses not,” and chanted, “What do we want? Access. When do we want it? Now.” The group, well-known for militant protests across the country, wants all public transit to be accessible to the wheelchair-bound. “I think they have a just cause, but I think they are carrying it to an extreme,” said Bob Hicken, general manager of the Phoenix Transit System, who walked up the hill from the lower parking lot. “We’d like to serve them all, but we can’t. If there were enough money in the world, we could do everything we wanted to.” - ADAPT (517)
Disabled Protesting Lack of Access to Buses Win Partial Victory from page B1 [we don't have part one of this story] ...it was the best they could hope for at present and agreed to stop blocking the building's doors and elevators. More than 100 people, most of them in wheelchairs, participated in the protests Monday and Tuesday. ADAPT members had planned to maintain a symbolic presence at the building after the agreement was reached, but no protesters were visible inside the facility Tuesday night. Authorities had attempted to eject protesters from the building Monday evening, but President Bush intervened and let them spend the night inside rather than send them out into the rain. During the lunch hour Tuesday, before the settlement was reached, tensions escalated between demonstrators and the building's employees. Protesters blocked elevators on the plaza level, forcing office workers and visitors to climb the stairs in the 26-story building. Security guards, who until then had stood by and watched, donned blue surgical gloves and forcibly removed some protesters from the elevators so people could pass. Having equal access to public transportation is a goal disabled people say they have fought years to attain. By denying able-bodied people access to the federal building was a way of underscoring the barriers they have in their daily lives, protesters said. But some people viewed the demonstration as an inconvenience and not as a tactic to gain rights for the disabled. "l wasn't their momma, and I didn't have them and l'm not God, so why do I have to put up with this?" argued one woman. Rhonda Lester of Denver, whose 5-year-old son was among the protesters, got into a face-to-face shouting match with her. After security officers stepped in, Ms. Lester said she understood the woman's point. "But she has to understand ours," she said. “Where would blacks be without protests?“ Although 35 percent of the nation's 50,000 buses have wheelchair lifts, handicapped persons say, they sometimes have to wait at a bus stop for an hour before one comes by with a lift or a bus driver who knows how to operate it. - ADAPT (385)

The Daily Sparks Tribune Wednesday, April 5, 1989 - Vol. 77, No. 233 © 1989 Sparks Tribune Co, [Headline] Protest from page 1A [we don't have part one of this article] Auberger, who arrived in town Monday to prepare for the protests, said he expects about 150 handicapped people from around the country to show up. Auberger said he met with members of the Sparks and Reno police, the Washoe County Sheriffs Department and court marshals Tuesday. “It's definitely threatening but I think the people coming in here are well aware of what could happen to them,” Auberger said. Already Auberger has had a confrontation, albeit a friendly one, with Nugget security and Sparks police. Monday when Auberger was casing the outside of the Nugget, with video camera in hand, a security guard and a police officer approached him and knew him by name, he said. “It gave me a real feeling for how the police are going to respond and how the casino security will respond,” Auberger said. “It was like the casino burped and the police said ‘Excuse me,’ and that's not normal.” Auberger said his group has yet to begin drawing up strategy on how it will carry out its demonstration. However, Auberger predicted his group won’t be happy with being confined to B Street. “(The location) is very visible to traffic on B Street but it won't be visible to APTA members" Auberger said. “The spot is perfect if your issue is with the public or it‘s directed at the Nugget.” Auberger said his group is not violent although it is confrontational. Zamboni showed the press a 10-minute video tape of an ADAPT demonstration held in San Francisco Sept. 28, 1987. The video tape showed demonstrators blocking a SAMTRANS bus and tying their wheelchairs to the vehicle’s wheelspokes and sitting on the Powell Street cable car turn-around. It also showed police handcuffing protestors to their wheelchairs and the protestors chanting “We want to ride,” and “We want access.” - ADAPT (544)

RTD move to privatize bus routes praised Transportation leader says city a step ahead PHOTO The Denver Post, Duane Howell: A uniformed police officer pushes a man (Greg Buchanan) in a motorized wheelchair up the ramp into the back of a van. On the side of the chair Greg has a “Steps spell discrimination” bumper sticker. Caption reads: ACCESS PROTEST: Police Capt. R.H. Kaspersen carts away Greg Buchanan, one of 26 wheelchair-bound protesters arrested Monday outside the entrance of the Radisson Hotel. by Terry Kilewer, Denver Post Staff Writer 4/25/89 Denver’s Regional Transportation District, which is contracting 20 percent of its service to private operators, may be a step ahead of other public transit systems with dwindling public money, delegates to a transit symposium were told Monday. Alfred DelliBovi, outgoing head of the Urban Mass Transportation Administration, praised Denver‘s move to the forefront of privatization — a trend toward government disengagement from transit that is catching on nationwide. RTD expects to save millions in future operating costs by farming out some bus routes to private companies, state Sen. Terry Considine, R - Cherry Hills Village, told an audience of 800 at the opening session of the two-day conference. Considine sponsored a bill last year to privatize a fifth of RTD’s service. Now he wants to go even further by redirecting RTD tax revenues toward other transportation needs, notably a Denver-encircling beltway. He said it's time to re-evaluate public transit, which is "21 times the tax cost per passenger-trip taken by private automobile." And he charged Gov. Roy Romer with failing to “tackle the tough decisions that need to be made" in state transportation legislation. A transit-and-highways bill Romer favored and Considine opposed died in the legislature last week. Romer disputed the senator's claims in his remarks to the conference. Later, in an interview, he said Considine is “off in left field" and out of step with his own political leadership on transportation issues. "I agree you've got to take advantage of all the savings you can. You've got to innovate with RTD; I signed (Considine’s) privatization bill last year. But more privatization won't take care of our highway problems.” Considine and DelliBovi seemed in-step on privatization, though. The UMTA boss said the key to emerging federal policy in the public transit area is "dwindling resources.” During DelliBovi’s two-year tenure at UMTA, the agency maintained the Reagan administration's bent toward frugal funding for transit construction and operations. - ADAPT (493)

The Atlanta Journal AND CONSTITUTION Tues., September 26, 1989 [Headline] Bush Lets Disabled Resume Federal Building Sit-In Protesters Want Feds to Require Wheelchair Lifts By Pat Burson and Alma E. Hill, Staff Writers Transit officials urged to ensure rides to suburban jobs. Page A12. After occupying the plaza floor of the Richard B. Russell Federal Building for eight hours Monday, more than 100 disabled activists were evicted at the close of the business day, only to be allowed back inside after President Bush personally intervened. The protesters, who formed a human blockade near the main entrances to the the 26-story tower about 10 a.m. Monday, vowed to remain until federal regulators require wheelchair lifts on all buses purchased with federal dollars. “We're here until the order gets signed," said Michael W. Auberger of Denver, one of the co-founders and organizers for American Disabled for Accessible Public Transportation (ADAPT). Mr. Auberger and other demonstrators from throughout the country lined their wheelchairs two and three deep near the doorways to the federal building, located at the corner of Spring Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, trying to stop anyone from leaving or entering. Mr. Auberger, who has been disabled since he suffered a spinal cord injury 17 years ago, and others blocked revolving doors by attaching chains and iron bicycle locks around their necks and locking them to door handles, a tactic used to prevent security from simply lifting protesters out of their wheelchairs to clear the doorways. At one point Monday afternoon, Mr. Auberger, 35, said, “They'll have to carry everybody out or arrest them."
