It was a really lovely and impactful event to attend today, and couldn’t help but contrast this with the outright hostility my hometown’s subway system (Seoul Metro) has displayed on its most vocal disabled riders for over a year

Today we hosted a safety orientation with the blind and low-vision community to educate them in navigating BART. At 19th St Oakland Station, we had a new train out of service so staff can guide where priority seating, emergency instructions and Braille signages are located.

S(ubstack)-Bahn is back for 2023! I provide an update to the near-daily protests by disability rights activists inside Seoul Metro. Started in 2021, the protests entered its third year. There is no resolution in sight; in fact, I argue it’s gotten worse seungylee14.substack.com/p/seoul-metros
