Through the public transportation, got, to ride this Jubilee, Line so, far the Piccadilly line this refer line they do was there a direct line no. Anyways. We'll. See what tomorrow brings. Last. Day. Mona. And red walking, with canes I decided, to visit red, cell who won the Holmen prize in 2019. So, we're, gonna record an interview I work for the Royal National Institute, of complainers, connect, radio. Station. And I'm. Going to interview Mona, about her project so. The British audience. Thank. You. RNIB. Exterior. Alright, and then we got. Inside. RNIB I'm, really excited I'm literally. In, an. Institution, for blind people here. Radley, Mona. And. Red inside Catherine, Cookson studio. Motive. Incorrectly from, 2019. Holmen prize-winner her. Project, planes canes, and trains is. Taking, her all, over the world. This. Was awesome if you want to learn more about red you can visit him at his website at red Cellcom, right, now we're, gonna go sit, down and discuss, issues related to blindness, so follow us along as we go to this cafe what do you feel, like the culture is here, with regards, to navigating. As a blind person outside, like. In the public, basically. You. Could have on your own unless, you lost well if. You lost but how most, people. I've. Had an interesting experience in, which I was asking, for help and being ignored, I wasn't, maybe assertive. As much is what Cooper London excuse, me excuse, me flashback excuse, me you, know what whining is it excuse me is this the way to the central line excuse me you know which way to street level yeah so I learned I have to be a little bit more assertive actually, even got to a point which I stopped, asking questions gonna be like London, Bridge right hour left London Bridge yes, behind me in front of me okay got it thank you how would you compare here, versus like San Francisco where you end people, in San Francisco. Are far more respect. Might, not being a mercy I get. The impression that in the, states blind. People are. Expected. To be far more self-sufficient, here. You. Are seeing that morale has somebody. Just. Relax a member of staff will escort you to the Train. We have a responsibility, here their girlfriend time I think you're far more likely to be led to, the other side of the street even if you don't want to go there. English. Person, the. Americans. Would just wait, for you to ask and, then they'll take you out of the street yes, I think disability, is still seen. Yes. Yeah. I think, so and the, conversation, that I had with the guy in the airport, it, was very nice but, it was kind, of intense because. I was, like well I I don't need, the help he was like it's not your trip I think I can decide for myself if I need the help but isn't, your choice service how is it not my choice on, the street it like that really got to me personally. It's. That you know you, are an accident, waiting to happen, I know but like that's also kind of insulting, you and I it's, extremely, insulting I told him I was like I'm. A professor I'm. Not saying no to the system I'm just saying let me choose when I need to use it versus not Leia, does, I say you say no do you think disability. Is most, people's worst nightmare, it is and I think then, I think.
It's Then self projective but. As you say I mean it's you know it's. A CA stem, from, that. To, be people, that the visa. Burden yeah I think that's what gets to me the most. Is. Feeling. Like I'm not burden no. I could, not remove so that's why the sister having a system of assistance, is great right, and as I don't need to burden anybody no, but then I also want the choice. It's. Also like that in the hotel by the way in hotels, I went to a hotel room here in London and they, were like you're by herself we need to register you and, I was like why like because, you're blind but. You did spy regulations, I know that yeah, because. If there is a fire they, make sure that somebody, remembers, yeah the reality, is if there's a fire, though I'm. Probably getting out as soon as possible not, waiting for somebody, exactly. Flashback. All. These bits. Of legislation they. Come with good intentions, but actually, they, a lot. Of prejudices. Yes. Yes. Okay. I agree but then again thing that where else people like to leave no they don't actually mean, yeah people, who are actually comfortable with their lives without being wined I think. That would be a good perspective right yeah absolutely, things. Crossed time lapse alas all, good things must, always come to a river time London it was great knowing here I'm glad I get the common, road. The tube and the underground, tour met some awesome people like red, and Ray and, Laurie wherever, you are I hope you're doing well you're extremely, nice thank, you and, now we'll see where I might venture. Me to Istanbul, via Munich, coming up next. Next. On planes trains and canes hiya. Sofia. Boat. Crosses, Bosphorus, take. It kiosk. To. The card reader please. Wait your request, isn't graded, successfully. Loaded. Descending. Subway escalator. Mona. And bus. Mona. Steps out of bus. Maybe. Towers. Hiya, Stephanie ceiling morning, folks. So.
