In this episode, I am joined by the lovely Jess, who is on the road to becoming the UK’s first Black, Blind Barrister. Find out about her eye condition and how she has found studying at Uni.
Jess tells me about the different types of Lawyers, and how she deals with her “morals” when representing clients.
We also discuss the disproportionate rates of black people in prison.
Find out what advice Jess would give to anyone thinking about getting into the criminal justice system especially our fellow blind and partially sighted peers.
