In this episode of The InclusionHub Podcast, host Sam Proulx resets the table, so to speak, returning to several critical yet rarely articulated insights shared by guests of our inaugural drop, and re-evaluating where we are as a society in the collective quest toward true digital accessibility and inclusion, for all.

Among those: that the web is broken—impacted by what Sam describes as “flat-out greed.” All this has created a luc...

From Judith Heumann sharing her experiences spearheading many of the key disability rights protests of the ‘60s and ‘70s to Jennifer Keelan-Chaffins recounting her pivotal participation in the Capitol Crawl to help force the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), “Nothing About Us Without Us” has rema...

In Episode 4 of The InclusionHub Podcast, you’ll hear from more luminaries about the origins of the ADA and its impact, plus how the law relates to the online world. It’s indisputable that the ADA has been instrumental in improving the physical world for people with disabilities—meaning it has worked largely as intended—but how the ADA is adapted for digital spaces is a much more difficult question to answer.

To do that, we enlist...
