[AccessOn-Announce] Access On episode 69

[Mosen, Jonathan]

Episode 69 of Access On, is on.
This episode is our Apple 50th birthday special. We tell the story of the first era of Apple accessibility, which was entirely grassroots driven, by speaking with some of the people who lived it. And we fire up a virtual Apple IIE, let you hear some of the games people played, and what the speech sounded like in the 1980s.
We also reflect on how the modern Apple accessibility era would not have occurred without the tenacity and input of the organized blind movement.
