First, I speak with Reyma McCoy McDeid, Executive Director of the Central Iowa Center for Independent Living in Des Moines and a former candidate for state legislature. Next, I speak with Sarah Funes, a recent graduate of UC Berkeley who is very active with get out the vote efforts locally in the San Francisco Bay Area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Both Reyma and Sarah discuss what political participation means to them. Reyma shares her experiences running for office in Iowa and the importance of creating structural changes to encourage more disabled people to consider running. Sarah talks about her activism during her time as a college student at UC Berkeley and her current work increasing voter turnout and registration.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Transcript<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/19n0ebE1H2p2jrk2mSLCmuCBjDJmBBmkFWfjJ2kUiVeo\/edit?usp=sharing\">[Google doc]<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0 \u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/disabilityvisibilityproject.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Voting-Rights.pdf\"><strong>[PDF]<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Related Links<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncil.org\/candidates\/\">Candidates with Disabilities Running for Office in 2018 and 2019<\/a><\/span><span class=\"s2\"> (National Council on Independent Living)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Carter, Sherman.
