The Blind Side Podcast 9, Discrimination in the lawyer’s office, The Rush Miller Foundation, Autour

Published: Oct. 7, 2016, 8:42 a.m.

Jonathan begins this week with a recent experience he had in a lawyer’s office that got him thinking about the legal profession and outdated attitudes about blindness.

We meet Eric Miller from the Rush Miller Foundation, an organization dedicated to providing tandem bicycles for blind people and a sighted bike mate to use. Learn more about the Foundation at http://www.rushmillerfoundation.org.

We then hear from Jeremy Cooperstock from McGill University in Canada about Autour, a navigation app that is trying an innovative approach to providing blind people with information about what’s around them.
