[nabs-l] Recording NABS meeting

[Angela fowler]

That's correct. The video is not for our benefit, but one of the main goals
of the NFB is to educate the general public about our capabilities, is it
not? When they see us doing things with skill and confidence they will begin
to see us not as disabled people, but as people who happen to be blind.

Chris,
I think the reason for the video recording is to prove that blind people can
work with and alongside sighted people, so when we ask for accomidations
they are well founded requests, on the other hand, we the blind can do a
little extra to "accomidate," the sighted.
At least, that's what I thought when Angela explained it.
