23-year-old Jessikah Inaba was the first black and blind student at the University of Law in central London.

A lawyer in the United Kingdom has created history by becoming Britain's first black female blind barrister. 23-year-old Jessikah Inaba qualified last week after studying for five years at the University of Law in London. As per The Times UK, she completed her entire course using Braille, and credits her friends and tutors for helping to fill in the gaps. 

Speaking to the outlet, Ms Inaba said, "I know I can do this job well, and the more people like me who go through training the easier it will become. I know I'm giving hope to others in similar situations."

"There's a triple-glazed glass ceiling. I'm not the most common gender or colour, and I have a disability, but by pushing through I'm easing the burden on the next person like me," she added. 

Further, the 23-year-old revealed that she was the first black and blind student at the University of Law in central London. She said that it took seven months for the university to obtain one of her two key study texts so she could read on her computer, and five months for the other.
