[Community-service] What is Federation philosophy?

[Marianne Denning]

I copied this from the NFB web page.
The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.
This I
s
so true but we have to struggle against those low expectations every day.
