again am going through old posts. This podcasts has created quite a bit of
controversy in the blind community and I understand that there have been
some efforts made by NGFB about portraying blind people in a light that
shows a greater degree of competency. Concerns have been raised about its
reinforcement of negative stereotypes of blind people and their ability to
overcome their disability. This has applied to several of their podcasts.
