The article discusses what the author refers to as the gendered nature of disability discrimination in America as of 2017, and it mentions the intersectional discrimination that some disabled women encounter. Legal protections under Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act are examined, along with data regarding the number of claims filed by men and women at the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Legal remedies and Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act are assessed.
