The zoom feed worked for me during the board meeting this morning. However, nothing (zoom, the web stream, etc) has worked for me this afternoon.

Is anyone able to get the convention with the zoom link or the echo?
I can not get either to work?
Just music on the zoom link and nothing on the echo!

The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland 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
