In this continuation of the previous episode, Shawn is once again joined again by Clement and Kaia to explore what happens when sighted people actually simulate blindness through blindfold party games, 24‑hour YouTube challenges, team‑building trust exercises, sports like goalball, “dining in the dark,” and even professional O&M training. Together they unpack when blindfolds can be harmless fun or useful educational tools, and when they reinforce harmful stereotypes, emphasizing how intent, framing, and meaningful involvement of the blind community make all the difference in whether these simulations help or hurt understanding of blindness.
