Planes, Trains  and Canes: Documentary screening and discussion
Tuesday June 30, 2:00 - 3:30 PM Eastern
Planes, Canes and Trains is a Youtube documentary by Dr. Mona Minkara,
winner of the Holman Prize for Blind Ambition. We'll watch an episode about
Mona's exploration of Tokyo using her mobility skills and public
transportation. Then, we'll talk about the episode, how accessible
technology is different in Japan, and how each of us navigates the world
with our own mix of skills and strategies.
Anyone is welcome. Our remote tech programs are an evolution of the in
-person and hybrid workshops hosted at the Andrew Heiskell Braille and
Talking Book Librry. Our ; blind, sighted, or somewhere in between; local
