Election looking very disappointing so far -- regardless of who wins, Trumpism is here, seemingly, to stay. I'm sad for my country, but determined to defend the Constitution against this menace with all I have. Much love to everyone and stay cool :).

Harris is using descriptive audio, namely Self-description which provides information about the individual that non-blind people take in visually. This is an inclusive practice to bring equality to a meeting for people who are blind or low vision. It is not the gotcha you think it is.
