Blindsight


Cultural Diversity: in the story there are a group of kids who were blind from Tibet whose religion is Buddhist , which their tribes and religion see as a cursed people who had done bad things in their lives; it is as a punishment for them but they are trying to overcome the situation of being handicapped; the hate, discrimination, stereotyping and racism has got a hold on the people; the kids who got beat up for not achieving the proper money budgets and the kid who’s Chinese is being burnt all over his body with the cigarettes. A German lady and some of her friends from America, gave the opportunity for some blind kids in Tibet, to climb Mountain Everest; this is where the cultural diversity collided and helped them to reach the capability and challenges to reach their goal; they are being trained in how to climb and they face excessive challenges; the other thing is that oxygen is getting lower every time they go higher. While they are on their path to the top, they somehow failed to reach their goal because of the lack of oxygen, but they were proud of what they have done learning the English language, and their confidence got lifted up and they were appreciated and hoping to start life in a new fresh start.
