I had already been taught that Stevie Wonder was blind by the first time that I saw him on television. I wanted to see what a blind man's eyes looked like, and honestly believed that if I got close enough to the television, that I could look behind his glasses. I was pressed up against the screen trying to see behind them for ages before I finally gave up.
