We just need a platform where we can shine

Huang Bo, 23, a visually impaired fitness instructor in Nanchang, Jiangxi province

I was born with impaired vision; my eyesight is only 10 percent that of an able-bodied person.

Living in an isolated, impoverished village in Fuzhou, Jiangxi province, meant I didn't get any formal education until I was 12. Then, I attended a school for the blind in Nanchang, the provincial capital.
