There are a few topics co-host Kerry finds are so important, she will bring them up over and over (no matter the day or month), as often as she can. Braille is one of those.
This week on Outlook though we start by paying our respects to the loved ones, and Western University students, lost on Flight PS752 which took place in January, 2020, in recognition of the families still searching for justice.
We discuss co-host Brian’s accessibility trouble choosing a seat when ordering a concert ticket online, nephew Max getting a soundboard like his Uncle Brian for Christmas, and we’re talking Braille Lego - all while returning to a bunch about braille and its mythology and history to celebrate January 4th being World Braille Day.
We hint at an upcoming guest and their new memoir with the author’s descriptions of learning braille in middle age. as we are back, live in studio for the first time in 2024 and ready to celebrate the legacy Braille left. Happy Braille Literacy Month and check out Braille Literacy Canada for more on braille in Canada:
