Media can often misrepresent the blind and visually impaired community through the use of stereotypes that are so ingrained into our society.  

 

But can we challenge these internalised stereotypes and how do we do so without stigmatisation? 

 

Dr Catalin Brylla, Lecturer in Film and TV at Bournemouth University and RNIB Connect Radio’s Simon Pauley discuss breaking down blind stereotypes in this 8-part series.

 

Listen out for episode 4 of ‘Breaking Blind Stereotypes’ next Tuesday 17th of March after 4 PM on RNIB Connect Radio.
