Why Using ‘Blind’ Figuratively Is a Bad Idea

PODCAST VERSION

Welcome to year two of Deep Sy! Today, I talk about the stranger on the street who recently explained how grateful she was not to be me. Then I read this week’s post about all the terrible ways we use the word “blind” as a figure of speech.

Mentioned today: the episode of this podcast, “Wy Do People Who Can See Call Themselves Blind?”
