Greetings Everyone,
Aaron has a point in the ideology of some blind people. However, I would
like to ask Aaron if he has ever sought employment. I know of individuals,
like myself, that have an extensive employment history and are unemployed.
Special treatment or as I like to call it reasonable accommodations, are put
in place for us to be on a level playing field as our sighted counterparts.
When I worked for the government I asked for "special treatment" just so I
can do my essential work duties. When society gives us equal opportunities
in employment, or housing, or just in society, blind people attitudes should
hopefully change. Granted, just because I have a disability I can't expect
for people or agencies to put things in my hand; I have to earn what I get.

Hello fellow listers,
I've just written my second blog article on my website blindpodcaster.com
<http://www.blindpodcaster.com> concerning the special treatment of
blindness. So, go check it out and leave a comment. Here's the link.
