Imagine sitting in a lecture, straining your eyes, trying to decipher the scribbles on the whiteboard. Now, imagine that struggle amplified because you’re colorblind and the professor insists on using red and green pens, colors you can’t distinguish. This was the reality for a 19-year-old university student, who we’ll call ‘Colorblind Crusader’. When her pleas for a simple switch to blue or black pens were met with condescension and dismissal, she took matters into her own hands. What happened next will leave you speechless.
