2023-07-20 12:00 - 13:30 | Liberty Station Conference Center, 2600 Laning Road, San Diego, CA, 92106, United States
In 1966, Hiro was born in Amakusa city’s Kumamoto prefecture. At the age of 13, he started loosing his
sight, becoming totally blind at the age of 16.He later heard a message from his uncle in the heaven. “You became blind to encourage
people who are struggling and cannot find meaning in life. You, as a totally blind person exploring many
different things, can inspire these people.”
Hiro started looking at his blindness from a different perspective: not as a negative, but as a positive aspect
of life. He began trying an array of new activities including: the Special Athletes Sports Competition,
climbing Mt. Fuji (the highest mountain in Japan), studying abroad at San Francisco Sate University,
running a full marathon, and sailing (introduced to him by his wife).
Learn about his two attempts (one successful) to be the first blind person to sail across the Pacific.

As much as 70% of that plastic reaches the sea from five countries in Asia, and less than 9% of plastic waste is recycled.

Sandra Maas: The Power of Storytelling
2023-08-17 12:00 - 13:30 | Liberty Station Conference Center, 2600 Laning Road, San Diego, CA, 92106, United States
As a medical reporter and TV news anchor, veteran journalist Sandra Maas spent her career sharing the stories of others. In 2019 she became the story, after discovering her male co-anchor was making almost $100k more than she was for doing the same job. When she was fired after bringing it to the attention of management, she filed an Equal Pay lawsuit against her employer McKinnon Broadcasting Company, which owns KUSI-TV. This spring at trial, a San Diego Superior Court jury sided with Sandra, ruling the station violated the California Equal Pay Act. Sandra shares how the experience changed her life and connected her to the Women’s Museum of California, where she is now trying to make a difference for women in the workplace.
