How difficult is it for people with mobility disabilities to navigate the city’s sidewalks? This question is the center of a lawsuit against the City of Chicago, alleging a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, or ADA. 

The firm suing the city claims it has failed to maintain sidewalks leaving them inaccessible.

As Disability Pride Month comes to a close, In the Loop brings together an attorney behind both the new and previous lawsuit, a plaintiff in the suit and a local advocacy group leader to hear just how accessible Chicago is.

GUESTS: Rachel Weisberg, directing attorney at Disability Rights Advocates

Kevin Sullivan, plaintiff against the city, motivational speaker
