Recovering from hernia surgery, on a slightly more than fair dose of oxycontin, I kick off this episode with an update on my recovery and my interactions with the hospital staff. Then, I let loose on Google for its email service becoming less accessible than it used to be. Following that, I dive into a discussion about a college class I'm reluctantly taking, one that presents the theory of social justice as unequivocal truth—a stance I disagree with.
From there, I explore the deeply personal nature of social, racial, and national identity through the unique viewpoint of blind identity. I draw a line between militantly independent blind individuals and those who, in the moment, I refered to as "Uncle Tom" blind individuals, highlighting the existence of two distinct national organizations within the blind community.
As the episode progresses, I balance my critique and admiration for the world built by sighted individuals, ultimately acknowledging that, despite everything, there's never been a better time to be blind.
The climax of the show is a wide-ranging rant, unified by my rejection of a victimhood mentality.
Buckle up for a ride through my thoughts on identity, accessibility, and resilience. Hope you enjoy the show!
