Many of you know me as ‘Ava, the gardening coordinator’, and it is true that I love our community garden! In addition to loving the Ann Arbor CIL garden however, I am also an activist and a member of the disability rights group, ADAPT. ADAPT is a national grass-roots community that organizes disability rights activists to engage in nonviolent, direct, action; including civil disobedience, to assure the civil and human rights of people with disabilities to live in freedom. ADAPT members from all over the country get together twice a year for an ADAPT national action. Thus, on April 21st I traveled to Washington D.C. to attend the spring national action.
