Hello Everyone,

 

 

The National Federation of the Blind has a pending case against the
Container Store involving the accessibility of touchscreens in the physical
stores.

The Federation won an important victory regarding forced arbitration clauses
as noted in the following article:

We need to hear from blind people who have shopped at the Container Store or
have a desire to shop there in the future.  Please contact NFB attorney Tim
Elder at telder at trelegal.com <mailto:telder at trelegal.com>  or 415.873.9199
if you have recently shopped at a Container Store or would like to shop in
the store in the future.  NFB is preparing to certify a class action in this
matter.  We need your help to advocate for equal access to touchscreen
devices in physical stores.

"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."
