In the past, to be blind was to live in shame; considered a punishment for sins in a past life. The idea that being ‘legally’ blind and it’s middle age origin is almost criminal, and yet, as beggars had to prove their disability to find the favour of charity, we live in a day and age where Anne has to present an ID, from a charity, to prove that she is different. Anne challenges all of our views of legal blindness.

Anne Malone is a writer, speaker, and creator who envisions and advocates freedom from disability for people who are blind.
