Fred Bailey didn’t just defy the odds. He didn’t see his circumstances as a deck stacked against him. In fact, he couldn’t see at all, which was one of the challenges you’d expect to hold someone back. "You’re Black, blind, and poor," his father told him, adding that hard work was going to be the only way out.

In this profile interview, Bailey talks about his memoir, his career and his nonprofits that help at-risk youth in Gallatin.
