Wow, is that a stripper in a wheel chair in the photo? That’s curious in that I would never expect a dancer stage to be ADA accessible for workers.

No, its a rollator not a wheelchair.

Both rollators and wheelchairs can be temporary aids while recovering from injury. Being temporary unable to work because of injury doesn’t necessarily make someone less concerned with working conditions.

I definitely understand how someone using a rollator is concerned with working conditions. I think the notable aspect is a stripper using a rollator. But good point that it may just be temporary and in use during the celebration/protest event photographed rather than a permanent device that would also be used during performances.
