Promotional graphic for a January 23 episode of the Disability Daily Podcast featuring Ed Roberts. The poster includes the podcast logo and a sunrise landscape background, with a black-and-white close-up photo of Roberts smiling, showing his bushy mustache and graying beard. Only his head is visible as he lies inside an iron lung machine from the neck down. Text identifies him as a father of the disability rights and independent living movements.

Remember: the #UglyLaws made it illegal to be #disabled in public, doctors told families to #institutionalize their kid, AND being disabled in college was impossible until #EdRoberts fought #UCBerkeley to go. The ADA was passed in the 90s; we're still in the infancy of our fight for equality.
