[nabs-l] FW: Redoubling Our Efforts

[Cazares, Gabe]

Howdy Students,
I know we have active twitter users on this list, so please do your part. Help us bring awareness to the Marrakesh Treaty. This has a direct impact on you: interested in studying a foreign language? Want accessible materials in your native language with more frequency? You've got to help #FeedTheBookFamine

Tweet! Tweet! Tweet! See my message below for more information.

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.

Howdy Fellow Federationists,
Keep'em coming! Our presence on Twitter has been strong so far, but we are not backing down now! We have just heard from the White House, your efforts to raise the profile of the Marrakesh Treaty are being noticed. Our voices are being heard, but we can't stop now! If you have not done so already, please join your fellow Federationists by tweeting our partners to remind them that people with disabilities want to read! It's time to #FeedTheBookFamine

For your convenience, please find sample tweets below, and please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

See y'all out on the Twitterverse!
