The promise of America is analyzed through the intersection of women's suffrage and the disabilities right movement. Travel from Washington, DC to Seneca Falls, NY on a trip to discover how civil and human rights have become more accessible over time through legislation and activism.

Hear stories of resilient leaders like Helen Keller and Tammy Duckworth. Discover how the Americans with Disabilities Act has shaped the last three decades and take a quick visit to Washington, DC's local Gallaudet University, a world-class institute of change-makers in the deaf and signing community.
