At Banter Podcast

This week Rob and Ryan dive into one of the lesser talked about challenges in the blindness and advocacy communities: the growing gap between generations. With guests Betty Nobel, Albert Ruel, Clement Chou, and Russell Leung, they explore how technology can both connect and isolate, why younger blind folks may resist joining organizations or volunteering, and how “back in my day” clashes with “you don’t understand my reality.” From the impact digital communities can have on real world social skills to nonviolent communication and just learning to listen, this honest and sometimes irreverent conversation asks what it will really take for older and younger generations of blind folks to start building community together.
