NCD Chairperson Marca Bristo to Participate in Anti-Singer-Appointment Rally at Princeton University

National Council on Disability (NCD) chairperson Marca Bristo will participate in a rally at Princeton University, against the appointment of Dr. Peter Singer to a distinguished ethics chair, because of his basic disregard for the human and civil rights of people with disabilities. Dr. Singer advocates that "killing a disabled infant is not morally equivalent to killing a person." The rally, which is sponsored by Princeton Students Against Infanticide, will take place on Saturday, April 17, 1999, from 11:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m., in front of Nassau Hall, Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey.

NCD is an independent federal agency charged with advising the President and Congress on public policy affecting people with disabilities. It is currently coordinating a multi year study on the implementation and enforcement of the Americans with Disabilities Act and other civil rights laws.
