It is the honor of a lifetime to make Global Disability Inclusion's "list of 36 people to know who are advancing accessibility and disability inclusion."
I have used my urban design and storytelling skills to create a better built environment for all.

Tip of hat to the Cosmo Expeditions team in Cusco, Peru.
My Machu Picchu questions were expertly/expediently answered.
I now understand the 3 classes of train service, shuttles & citadel tour circuits.

Gratified to see well-displayed disability services hubs in each terminal at Orly Airport Paris.
I have seen the same, as well as very accessible restrooms at Charles de Gaulle airport Paris.
Kudos.

I never heard Obama call anyone fat, talk about penises or asses, lie about an election he lost, or threaten to punch a protester. I never watched him turn the presidency into a spectacle of insults & bizarre behavior.
God, I miss having a dignified president who made us proud.
The names on the uniforms are famous.
The salaries are dizzying.
But the Miami Heat's performance is dismal.
Five paunchy guys from the YMCA over 50 league, paid in warm beer and cold hotdogs, could go 0-4.

Iconic and timeless Eiffel Tower from a distance at dusk in late summer. Paris Perfect image composed from Île de la Cité by Pont Neuf. Urban life works best under progressive leaders. #streetphotography #paris #pontNeuf #EiffelTower #france @ParisJeTaime @ArielWeilT @egregoire
Tip of hat to Luis at Afma Nueva Alta Hotel in Cusco, Peru. Luis warmly and expediently answered dozens of trip planning questions about quiet rooms, late check in, early breakfast, tours & neighborhood amenities.

The sturdy iron Eiffel Tower looks like soft lace lattice work in the soft Paris late summer sunset over the equally historic Pont Neuf. Urban life works best under progressive leaders. #streetphotography #paris #pontNeuf #EiffelTower #france @ParisJeTaime @ArielWeilT @egregoire

I finished my early dinner in Paris and this surreal vision appeared. Trippy, sci-fi, a bit of Jules Verne in the heart of the City or Light. Late summer strolls in the golden hour present amazing photo ops. #Streetphotography #Paris #SciFi #travel #PhotoJaournalist @ParisJeTaime
Pont Neuf brilliantly lit by the Bras de la Monnaie section of the River Seine. Such a sense of place, perfect example of la ville du quart d'heur. #streetphotography #Paris #RiverSeine #walkable #LaVilleDuQuartDHeur @CarlosMorenoFr @ParisJeTaime @ArielWeilT

Retrofitted wheelchair access at Place du Trocadero and Palais de Chaillot in Paris’ 16th arrondissement on the right bank of the River Seine. The City of Light has a long way to go to reach total disability inclusion. #paris #wheelchairAccess #Trocadero #UniversalDesign #travel
The first time I came to Paris, I weighed well over 300 pounds. There was a 100 degree heat wave and I almost had a heart attack walking the steep route to Basilique du Sacré-Cœur de Montmartre.
Now I have shed more than 100 pounds.

Starting a family is personal. It should not require government approval.
In Florida, James Uthmeier is putting in vitro fertilization at risk. For those counting on IVF, the stakes couldn’t be higher.
I’m José Javier Rodríguez. As Attorney General I'll protect your freedom to decide whether, when and how to start a family.
Tour Eiffel from Trocadéro. The historic stone arch bridge is the 1814 Pont d'Iéna. The Paris pedestrian landmark spans the River Seine. It connects the Right Bank to Champ de Mars on the Left Bank. #paris #streetphotography #toureiffel #Trocadéro #pontdIéna @ParisJeTaime #travel

President Obama is right. Angie Nixon will make a great U.S. Senator.
She has overcome enormous odds. She has the momentum.
She’s gonna win!
Today, I’m honored to share that President Obama is supporting our campaign for the U.S. Senate.
President @BarackObama & I both started as organizers in our communities, because we immediately understood that real changes come from regular folks joining the fight.
