Sight Unseen reveals the cultural and biological realities of race, gender, and sexual orientation from the perspective of the blind. Through 10 case studies and dozens of interviews, Ellyn Kaschak taps directly into the phenomenology of race, gender, and sexual orientation among individuals born blind, along with the everyday epistemology of vision. Kaschak's work reveals not only how the blind create systems of meaning out of cultural norms but also how cultural norms inform our conscious and unconscious interactions with others regardless of our physical ability to see. She exposes gender, race, and sexual orientation as unconscious and pre-verbal in the sighted, an aspect of implicit bias.

Det bliver mere og mere nødvendigt for både forældre, pædagoger og lærere at kunne skelne børns adfærd. Hvad er hvad? Hvornår skal der stilles en diagnose og hvornår skal der opdrages - og hvad gør vi ved det? I dag skal der hele tiden tages stilling til om et barn der foretrækker at lege alene, som ikke forstår legekoder, og som ikke kan finde ud af andre børns signaler - er det en umoden 5 årig eller et barn med Aspergers syndrom.

Did you know that, for example, those born on June 4 (leap years) or June 5 (common years) are not only perpetual servants by character, and are flexible, try to please and anticipate desires ("the master is laughing - I'm laughing"; "the master is sad - I'm sad"), but also they will ask a great price of "the master" for being whoever the master wants to see? They are masters of illusions, lie with or without reason....

Why would anyone choose this? But choose they did.
