I don't know who needs to hear this, but DON'T TOUCH PEOPLE WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT

[lucyedwards]

It was so so lovely to chat with every one thanks for inviting me on ✨

Loving the fact that Mario is wearing a super Mario shirt lol

A teacher molesting a blind student, that's a kind of evil that I literally don't have words for.

[Just]

They all are so well spoken. I think this is the only episode where everyone represents their thoughts so politely and smoothly.

[skylerhamlyn]

I love how they got a range of people with different types of blindness

[Salz-quml]

Damn my heart broke when Alisha discussed being discriminated as a black woman vs a blind woman. We as a society have a very long way to go.

When lucy said she would like to see her mom, dad and sisters faces again cause they already faded from her memory i felt a big knot in my throat, damn in so grateful i get to see ny loves ones 😢

I already knew that there would be people trying to debunk Molly’s blindness because she would be facing/looking at the camera. I already knew from when I saw the first few participants not facing the camera that Molly WOULD be looking directly at the camera! She’s a YouTuber and a public speaker. She’s trained in this!!!

I am 18 and i was recently diagnosed with IIH, im slowly losing my vision and i have already fully lost it in my left eye. I live in Nigeria so theres no such thing as legally legally blind amd so people dont acknowledge what im going through and so school is really hard for me. I still see enough to be able to read for short periods of time a day. I didnt want to finish school and start making money so i can help myself before i go blind, if i do but parents in Nigeria don't really believe in dropping out or skipping college, otherwise they don't think youll make it in life. Im grateful to these people for doing this now because I am now confident that if i fully go blind i can survive. When my problem started, i went into a deep depression and I had anxiety and I was suicidal. But ive been getting better. I still have panic attacks but im getting better and this helps a lot. More strength to all blind people out there.

literally no one talking about Mario adopting kids (now teens, & he may have even adopted them when they were teens!)?! Bless him. He sounds like an amazing father--and not "considering his disability, " just am amazing father in general.

*😎 Thanks for* having me! It was a pleasure to hear what everyone had to say!!
*Clarification* : When I said post-pandemic, I misworded that, meant the present, or the post-emergence of the pandemic.

Touching someone’s guide dog especially a stranger when you don’t even know the dogs job is incredibly danagerous and disrespectful. My parents made sure I understood from a young age that dogs in uniform are working and you should never disturb them or their handler. That’s just so messed up that someone touched her dog in the street. What? Did you think she wouldn’t notice because she’s blind? The nerve of some people!!

Hi Jubilee, I'm David, or maybe that should be Ollie as you may know me. You see, at 4:40 until 4:43 when Lucy (My best friend) Talks about Ollie (Her Fiance) You put up two delightful pictures which i'm somewhat guessing you've Pinched from Lucy's instagram. I'm also guessing you meant for them to both be Lucy and Ollie. it's a nice touch, and one of them, is indeed Ollie. However... the other is not.... it's me. Now, There has been a longstanding joke in our friends about me and Ollie looking similar, Which about 9 years ago we sort of did... however for the last few years as we reached our 20s these jokes have subsided as me and Ollie don't really look alike or at least so we thought.

That pizza was nice though and Ollie actually took that photo of us, Just a little surprised to see myself in your video ;)

[anoushkab]

lmao i was out here thinking this was odd man out tryna find who wasn’t actually blind smh

[atifkhateeb]

Are we just going to ignore how beautiful alisha is!!

[theylied]

This is why I like (Do All ... People Think Alike), they always make me either face my own ignorance, unasked questions, or challenge a stereotype.

[meglbrn]

Question for Alisha : What does it feel like to be a goddess???
