Down to the Struts

Making the ADA with Chai Feldblum


Listen Later

Welcome to Season 10 of Down to the Struts!

To kick things off, Qudsiya sits down with the indomitable Chai Feldblum. Chai is a civil rights advocate and scholar. For nearly four decades, Chai has fought for the rights of LGBTQ and disability communities through legislative advocacy, teaching, scholarship, government service, and much more. She played an integral role in the drafting of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Qudsiya and Chai talk about Chai's work on the ADA, including the unlikely coalition that she brought together, and so much more.

The Art of Legislative Lawyering and the Six Circles Theory of Advocacy
