Today on the show, Steven Scott and Shaun Preece discuss various topics including the ongoing debate about Braille literacy and its correlation with employment, innovative training solutions for the blind, and how to change the batteries in Apple AirTags.
There’s also a lively discussion on various themes surrounding leadership in blindness organisations, representation, community support, language, and technology. Steven suggests the need for blindness organisations to have a succession plan in leadership roles, particularly for blind people, and the need for genuine representation within organizations.
The conversation also touches on the significance of community support for those experiencing sight loss and critiques the limitations of language in identity politics.
