I not only “seem to speak” English. I DO speak English and have a degree in journalism. And you say “in many ways” but actually you did not lose your son “in any way.” You lost the idea of what you thought your son could be. – at Washington, DC

Physically being pushed into a bulkhead seat after declining 6 or 7 times is not how I invisioned starting my @SouthwestAir flight. Guide Dog users can request a bulkhead seat at their own will, but are not required to sit in one if not desired.

We have had enough. There is a long history of films and tv shows featuring blind characters that do not truly represent the blind either through an authentic depiction or by casting a blind character in the role. #LetUsPlayUs
