Blinded by Sight: Seeing Race Through the Eyes of the Blind won the 2015 Herbert Jacob Prize and the Bronze Medal in the Social Issues category of the 2014 Independent Publisher Book Awards. The author, Osagie K. Obasogie, explores how people who are blind “see” race. Obasogie writes that even those who are blind from birth understand race visually. This understanding influences how people who are blind interact and relate to the world around them. You may find this book a valuable addition to your professional library.
