PHOTO (by Rich Addicks):
Two men sit in a room. One, a white guy, looks resigned and sits at a table with a phone in a striped shirt and baggy pants facing the back wall of the room. He is making a call and in front of him is a piece of paper, next to the phone. The other man, African American, (Calvin Peterson) sits in his power chair his joy stick on his right side. He is looking past the camera with a far away look in his eyes and a look of slight frustration. He has his hands in his lap and wears a pull over and glasses.

Caption reads: DOT Office Joins Call for Accessible Transit - The Rev. Calvin Peterson (right), a member of ADAPT (American Disabled for Accessible Public Transportation), listens as LR. McDaniel, assistant regional representative for the U.S. Department of Transportation in Atlanta, calls the office of John Sununu, President Bush's chief of staff. Mr. McDaniel called to express support of a recent court decision mandating that public transit services be completely accessible to persons with disabilities.
