Disability Caucus Open Thread 6/29/16: Driver's License Required

So this afternoon I had a job interview I thought I'd be a shoo in for: An IT Technician position for the supervisor of elections that was to last from July to December. The interview was over before it even began. Why? It requires a driver's license. This has been the case with almost every job to which I've applied.

Protesting in Philly and Cleveland: a Tale of Two Cities.

How a country’s officials deal with the permitting and policing of protest marches and demonstrations is of vital importance in today’s world, where the elites increasingly control the political process, as We the People have been betrayed by politicians of all stripes. Taking it to the streets remains one of the few vehicles left for the 99% to influence policy in a rigged system. It is a righteous weapon. It is an essential weapon.
