[NFB-DB] Using Zoom

[Tracie Inman]

Hello:
 I use the Zoom platform with Captions and Transcript. If the Captions are
too fast to keep up, then I open the Transcript and view the transcript to
catch up with the conversation. However, my Jacksonville Chapter President
refused to pay for Captions for their Zoom meetings. She stated "It (the
cost)  is too much for the Chapter to consider".  It made me and another
Chapter member who is Deafblind feel as if we are an "expense".
