Cane I Kick It? (with Lachi)

Welcome to Season 2 of Disability Happy Hour!

Lachi (she/her, black woman with corn rows) joins us for an all-blind dish session about canes, fashion, pride, and coming out as blind in the music industry.

Lachi is a GRAMMY-nominated musician, entrepreneur, and disability culture advocate. Lachi hosts the PBS series Renegades and founded two influential disability culture companies --  RAMPD (Recording Artists and Music Professionals with Disabilities) and Glam Canes, her fashion lines of canes for blind folk.

Lachi's first book I Identify as Blind comes out in January 2026 -- if you value disability pride and entrepreneurship, give her a pre-order and uplift disability media.

Disability Happy Hour is independently produced by Andrew Barkan (blind film composer + GRAMMY-nominated children's musician), Will Barkan (blind tech manager + ultra marathon runner) and Phoebe Barkan (blind landscape designer + gold-medal winning paraclimber) -- please help us grow this conversation by subscribing, rating and sharing!
