About the Episode
Turning 21, Samuel Habib wants to date, leave home, go to college. Yet every rite of passage is fraught with challenges. Seizures and uncontrollable movements. Friends' homes inaccessible to his wheelchair. Degrading ableist encounters. “No one tells you how to be an adult,” he says, “let alone an adult with a disability.” Can a community of disability activists help him follow his dreams?
