For most of us not being able to see and experience the world around us would be a strange and confusing experience but when Talk SA visited the blind and partially sighted community in Worcester in the Western Cape, where both the Institute for the Blind and Pioneer School for the Blind are located, it learnt that while there are challenges for the blind community in South Africa, there is nothing that they cannot do from playing musical instruments to singing in choirs, acting on stage, playing golf, participating in athletics and dancing – even hunting and target shooting. Talk SA is a weekly 24 minute travelling talk show on SABC2 currently enjoying its fourth successful and influential season. Seen as one of the ‘pillars’ of the Channel it addresses issues of Nation Building and South Africa’s common identity. . Is South Africa’s unity working or is it just another ideal that can’t be realized? Every Tuesday at 11:30. Continue the conversation on our platforms.
