Wow I did not know that! Here in India people feel this way generally? And 
here I come from being born outside of India but with former Indian heritage 
roots, and feeling ashamed that I cannot speak Hindi. Just see how 
prejudices can come from both sides! We Indians outside India feel like we 
are low-born because we cannot speak home language.


So back to the topic of blindness, even we blind people feel some prejudices 
towards sighted people: "They talk about me and not to me even in my 
presence because they think I'm less of a human being just because I'm 
blind." But may be sighted people do not feel comfortable only because they 
have never dealt with a blind person before, not that they think we are less 
of a human being. Or may be they do not know how to assume what we might or 
might not understand in a conversation with us living without sight from 
their sighted world, so they would rather not speak to us directly. There's 
just so many possible factors.


Being blind and not speaking a language of the people around us is worse 
because now we are also deaf (being unable to understand the language), dumb 
(because we cannot speak the language), and blind as we are biologically. I 
don't wish this upon my worse enemy, and I ask for your prayers that I will 
find the determination to learn and speak Hindi soon enough to have enough 
courage to pick up the phone and call some of you on this list, just to test 
my limited diction for a conversation with you in Hindi!


Kind regards,

Hello everyone,

I feel upset when someone assume something about me because i'm a visually
impaired. oneof my Colleagues said that He assumed that i'm good at 
singing.

I didn't like the way he spoke. Why can't people understand that Visually
impaired people are unique and they can have different choices. Not every
Visually Impaired person would like to sing. I had face a similar issue
while traveling. Sighted guy associted singing with Visually impaired for
begging purpose. I was not alone. I have developed hatred for film songs
because of these experience. I do follow  spiritual music. Is this our
identity in society? I will request everyone to give up singing. We can
change society's perception by educating and using technology for
independent living as much as possible.

Well said Sujana. If we are thinking about obstacles, We will get
diverted on our path of attaining success. Let us try to uplift
ourselves rather than thinking the views of others.
There is lot of things to be carried out on our road map. So we are
not having time to bother  about external convergence factors.

Re: [AI] Why people make false assumptions about Visually Impaired person?

2023-04-26 Thread Sujana Pulipati
Hai Minor,

Hope I address you with the correct name. First, let me ask you one
question. Are you living for yourself or for this society? Why should
we give up our interests for this society. If the society couldn't
understand the talent of visually disable people, it is their problem.
Why should we bother?Each person will have his own talent despite
being a normal or with disability.But the disable person will go
through a lot before acheiving the success. Once we get succeded and
prove our talent to this society,they will start praising us instead
of humiliating.

I lost my vision at the age of 32 where at that time I am working as a
team leader in Corporate sector. Can you even imagine the turboil I
went through after experiencing such a terrible incident when I was
building my career. I was in dark for 7 years as I was not aware of
screen readers and about the privelaeges given by the government.

Later, I come to know about the screen readers and got accustomed to
the new life. I lost the vision in 2009,where as I started my new life
in 2017 when I got the job in Govt Sector under VI reservation. I went
through a lot in the earlier days of my job where every one didn't
even acknowledge my talent. I proved myself by working on the computer
and made them realize lack of vision is not a barrier to achieve
success.

I still face the rejection from them, but who cares. I don't bother
about their behavior as I am living for myself and for my family. I
regularly attend the office and try to learn some new things in that
time using my mobile. Recently I have started writing a novel which is
my long time dream in Prathilipi App.

Everything is in our hands. If you want to live for yourself, then try
to enhance your skills in your interests rather that abandoning them
for this society. We have to fight till we reach the peak of the
mountain where our success resides.

All the best.

Warm wishes,

Sujana Pulipati
