In this episode of the iCantCU Podcast, I talk about Global Accessibility Awareness Day #GAAD2022. It started off with, you guessed it, an accessibility issue with a website for me just after midnight. And that wasn’t the only one that day. I also share a story about our monthly Keystone Chapter meeting that included a field trip to a venue across town for an upcoming fundraiser. There’s also a cornea transplant post op update.
Global Accessibility Awareness Day
There is nothing more frustrating than going to a website or opening an app only to need help from someone sighted to use it. Learn more about the day and what digital accessibility is at https://accessibility.day/. You can also see previous year’s events at https://accessibility.day/past-events/#events-list.

White Canes Connect Podcast
Listen to another podcast that I cohost and produce called White Canes Connect. In episode 034, we talk with Angelina from the Angelina Sings YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHwQzjXhXwwGF0Yn3RBM_-Q. She tells us how she started singing when she was very young (she’s only 16 now) and how she taught herself to play the piano. She gives out some tips on how you can do it, too.
