Peggy Chong is the author of more than a dozen books about “Blind Ancestors” who have made a difference. Each book highlights their struggles and triumphs as blind people and highlights the normality of their lives and how each person was an integral part of his/her community as a normal citizen. She says: “Blind people historically held regular jobs and pursued professions that are the same as professions occupied by people without disabilities.”
