[nabs-l] a video advocating for audio description!

[Joshua Lester]

Well:
One thing the two organizations can do, to heal the division, is to stop hosting their national conventions at the same time!
#2. They need to stop bad-mouthing us!
We don't talk about them at our conventions, but at the one I attended, they were bad-mouthing the "TenBroek machine!"
I was also treated like a baby at the ACB Arkansas state convention, and while I was at the hotel, (this was in 2007,) the sighted guide that they hired wanted to share the room with me, and to try to take care of me like I couldn't care for myself!
At that point, I said that I was tired of it and left!
Two years later, I discovered the NFB, and I'm glad I did!
The Brailled currency is what drew me to the ACB, but after further research, I found that it was impossible.
If the ACB would adopt our philosophy of independence, and believe in us, like we believe in ourselves, we'd do a better job united, than we are doing divided.
Blessings, Joshua

I'm a member of the ACB and the NFB at the same time. I don't belong to
either camp exclusively. I like what both has to offer. my advice is
take what you can from both groups and learn from both, and support
both. They both have amazing things going on
