The documentary film "The Ride Ahead" follows Samuel Habib, a typical twenty-one-year-old, itching to move out, start a career, and find love. On his journey into adulthood, he talks to disabled adults who mentor him and give advice that is not only applicable to Samuel, but to any young disabled people starting adulthood.

Created by Emmy Award-winners Samuel and father Dan Habib, "The Ride Ahead" is currently streaming for free on the PBS website and app through September 19 as part of the POV series.

At the 2025 Smithsonian Folklife Festival, we had the pleasure of hosting a screening of "The Ride Ahead" in the Smithsonian National Museum of American History with a talkback afterward featuring Samuel, Dan, and one of his mentors, disability studies scholar Ly Xīnzhèn M. Zhǎngsūn Brown.

Watch the trailer and learn more about the film on the Festival Blog: https://s.si.edu/46BZlhj

We play ... with a purpose! That purpose is meaningful inclusion. So thankful for the Dynamic Recreation program at City of Knoxville, and the OneKnox Collective for their partnership in supporting power wheelchair soccer locally. Come give it a try sometime. It's a ton of fun 😉🫵

Power Soccer participants were recognized recently on the field at Covenant Health Park at a recent game as the “Goals for Good” recipient!
