[nagdu] A little off topic--Community Service division organizingmeeting at convention

[Lyn Gwizdak]

Interesting aboout the new division for people doing community service. 
Very nice.

I am still pissed at NFB for their homophobia in refusing the creation of an 
LGBT division for LGBT blind folks to talk about the special circumstances 
around being blind AND LGBT.  I feel invisible as a person as my LGBT 
identity is just as strong as my blind identity and there should be no place 
in NFB for antigay bigotry.

I do community service in the LGBT community as well as in the straight 
community with my pet therapy work.

Lyn and Landon
