In this episode of iCantCU, I discuss various engaging topics that have kept me busy over the past week. I begin with a humorous anecdote about a raffle where an unsold ticket wins. I reflect on my participation in a recent podcast episode of "That Real Blind Tech Show," where Brian and Ed critiqued Michael Schuman's article in The Atlantic,

I shift to local events, sharing my experiences at a transition fair aimed at assisting students moving between major educational stages. I also delve into challenges with accessibility, particularly highlighting frustrations with the Johnston and Murphy website and other digital platforms that fail to accommodate the visually impaired.

A significant highlight is my account of an eclipse listening party, where a device from Harvard was supposed to enhance the experience for the visually impaired. Despite high expectations, the device was underwhelming to me, though the social aspect of the event was enriching.

The episode also touches on systemic issues faced by disabled riders with SEPTA, Philadelphia's public transit authority. I criticize their outsourcing practices and lack of reliable service, which I illustrate with personal stories that underscore the inconvenience caused to disabled passengers.

Episode 262 is packed with personal stories, advocacy, and a candid look at the intersection of technology, accessibility, and community in the life of a visually impaired individual.

White Canes Connect Podcast Episode 100

In episode 100, Lisa and I speak with National Federation of the Blind President Mark Riccobono. He reflects on the podcast's journey, emphasizing its role in amplifying the voices of the blind community and fostering a sense of belonging and empowerment. He shares his journey with blindness, highlighting the transformative impact of finding mentorship and a supportive community within the Federation.

We discussed the militant tag that some outside our organization give us. I especially enjoyed the story he told about being with some Federationists and being denied entry to a ride-share because of a guide dog. Listen to see what Gary Wunder did!
