Shaw will cover the first activists and organizations of the 19th and early 20th Centuries, activism through the Depression and World War Two, and the rise of the modern disability rights movement from the 1960s to today. He is a Vice President of the 504 Democratic Club, a board member of the Brooklyn Center for Independence of the Disabled, and curated the first museum exhibit on the movement at the Brooklyn Historical Society.
