At CSUN this year, I met someone from Germany who was surprised to learn
that Braille is used so little on this side of the Atlantic, and shocked
that anyone could consider the idea of the death of Braille. In Europe,
she said, the expectation is that if you are blind, you will study and
learn Braille. Braille is considered an essential literacy skill, and as
such, it is a prerequisite for employment and higher education.

I know many people in Canada and the USA who promote this view.
Presumedly, this perspective was more widely held in the pre-screen reader
age than in the present. What has formented this change in perspective?
