And I was like, come on here and talk to us about it. And so through Denzel Washington, another reason he's the greatest actor of all time period, we got to talk about how movies portray people living with disabilities. And so I think that, and confuse the portrayal. And so again, I always have to shout out Alice Wong.

But the thing that I always, that I really remember from learning from her, and I grew up during this era, so you'd think I would know, but in my mind, if somebody had said, when was the American with Disabilities Act released? instituted, I'd have been like, I don't know, the 1900s, like the 20s, like, like, like, you know, like the 1800s.

Like, it seems like we would already have been on top of that. And to find out that even though I lived through it, wasn't aware of it, that was a Clinton era policy just really shows how slow America has been to understand this community.

And yeah, and thank you. I didn't realize it was George Bush. I don't want to look like I'm not giving Republicans credit. That was just, again, shows my ignorance around these things. So as somebody who I think is learning and knows more than I think many people do because of the community I'm around with Alice and Imani Barber is another person. Yeah, still, I don't have access to all of it.
