PRESIDENTS CORNER
We Are Family
By Cathy Jackson, President
National Federation of the Blind of Kentucky
The definition of family in the New Word Dictionary, Second College Edition
is: 1. A social unit consisting of parents and the children they rear. 2. A
group of people related by ancestry or marriage. But the family I want to
talk about is our Federation Family.
When we are very young we are content with our close-knit family that
consists of our parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts and uncles and
cousins. In our eyes, our family circle is complete and we are satisfied
with visits to grandmas house, spending the night with our cousin, and
looking forward to the upcoming family reunion. What could be better?
Obviously, as we grow older, we begin to meet friends in the neighborhood
and in school. Some of these friends become lifelong acquaintances that you
may actually get to know better than your blood relatives. For example,
Denise Franklin and I have known each other for over fifty years. We have
been through thick and thin, ups and downs, but through it all we remain as
close as most sisters.
Before you know it, you are an adult and the family circle gets a little
bigger. You and your brothers and sisters get married and there is this new
family unit called the in-laws. Oops, now you have children of your own,
and goodness me, there are nieces and nephews too. It by no means stops
here. We have all heard the old saying, You can pick a guitar; you can
pick your friends; but you cannot pick your relatives.
There is another family that we belong to, and that is our Federation
Family. Websters definition of Federation is: 1. The act of uniting or
forming a unit of states, groups, by agreement of each member to subordinate
its power to that of the central authority in common affairs. 2. An
organization formed by such an act; league; a federal union of states,
nations, etc. These definitions sound rather complicated, but in fact, they
are not. We have joined together in a common belief and philosophy that
blindness is nothing to be ashamed of and that we can and will take our
rightful place in society. We have tried-and-true methods by which we will
reach our goals such as: using non-visual techniques including learning
Braille, using a long white cane, and continued training in the use of the
latest accessible technology. We the members of the Federation actually
have higher expectations for ourselves than do others, which makes the
National Federation of the Blind a unique organization (family).
My Federation family started out small just as my biological family did.
Thirty plus years ago I became a member of the NFB of Greater Louisville. I
joined because Dennis and Denise Franklin were members, and also, because
Betty Niceley kept badgering me. I soon met other members of the Louisville
Chapter including Mary Franklin and two past presidents of the National
Federation of the Blind of Kentucky, Bob Whitehead and Harold Reagan. Quite
quickly friendships began to grow. I went to my first NFB of Kentucky state
convention in 1977 where I met members from other local chapters: Tim
Cranmer, Jerry Cameron, and Robert Page come to mind. After a while I was
asked to help with developing other local chapters across the state. We
traveled to Henderson where I met Lloyd and Joretta Agnew, John and Dorothy
Steel, Orville and Jenny Phillips, David and Grace Link and their young
daughter Mary Ann. It was on to Bowling Green where I first became
acquainted with Robbie McClave. I remember the first time I met Danny and
Anetta Perry from Murray, and since then they have introduced me to many
fine people from their neck of the woods. We re-built our Lexington Chapter
and before long I was calling Pamela and John Glisson family. I traveled
all the way to North Carolina where I met Lora Felty in 1992. She was an
NFB scholarship finalist that year.
I have also had the privilege of making friends with Federationists from
around the country. My Federation family members can be found from Maine to
Hawaii, from the east coast to the west, and everywhere in between. Being a
state president and member of the national board of directors has afforded
me the opportunity to travel and be involved in the NFB on many levels.
If you really want to get to know your fellow Federationists, you might want
to ask him or her to room with you at a state or national convention. Over
these many years I have had countless roommates. I wont divulge whos
sloppy, who snores, or whose guide dog wakes you in the morning with a
sloppy kiss. However, I will tell you it is the perfect setting to really
get to know one another. The roommate list is a long one: Tonia Gatton,
Melanie Peskoe, Mittie Lake, Maria Jones, Brenda Kimbro, Dianne Cline, Jayne
Seif, Joan Balot, Lora Felty, Angela Dehart, Sarah Williams, and others. It
goes without saying that this setting gives us the perfect opportunity to
discuss NFB legislation, philosophy, banquet addresses and fundraising
ideas. But it also leads to discussions that last long into the night about
children, shopping, clothes, school, and where to eat breakfast. Oh, did I
fail to mention that my two most recent roommates were Pamela AND John
Glisson? As a cost-cutting measure, we decided to share a room in Daytona,
Florida so we could attend the Blind Driver Challenge. You know, I just
realized that the topics of conversation were pretty much the same as
always. So, you see, we really are family.
HAVE YOU HEARD?
By Lora Felty
It is with much sadness that the Murray Chapter informs the NFB organization
of the loss of two very important people who played a key role in our
chapter.
Ms. Nell Norsworthy, longtime member and friend, passed away. Reldon, Ms.
Nell's husband, was a member of the chapter for many years since he had lost
his sight. When he passed away Ms. Nell continued to be a member and
support the group in its endeavors until she was no longer able to get out.
She will be remembered with great fondness.
Mr. Otis Yates, brother of member Sue Yates, went to be with the Lord. Otis
was a very special person who always attended the chapter events and helped
out in anyway possible. The main thing Otis was known for was his famous
banana pudding. He knew when an upcoming event included eating and that he
had better provide his banana pudding. The entire Yates family has
supported the chapter for many years. Mary has made afghans for fundraisers
and Ricky, the son, has donated his time and sponsorship for many dinners.
The chapter will miss each of these people greatly. Please keep their
families in your prayers.
Mario Eiland, who has worked at the Kentucky Office for the Blind's Charles
McDowell Rehabilitation Center, and prior to his employment with OFB, worked
in the technology department at the American Printing House for the Blind,
has taken a position in Washington state with the state rehabilitation
agency. Mario is now in Washington, while his wife, Sharon and daughters
remain in Louisville. Sharon and the girls plan to move after the end of
the current school year and when they sell their house. We will miss Mario
and Sharon, but we wish them all the best in the new life's adventure that
lays ahead for them. Best wishes, and don't forget your Kentucky friends.
Congratulations and best wishes go out to Lloyd Agnew, president of the
Henderson Chapter. Lloyd is retiring after 34 ½ years of operating his own
business. Lloyd, we wish you a happy and enjoyable retirement.
We are saddened to report the deaths of several long time members of the NFB
of Henderson. John Steele and Dee Phillips passed away earlier this year.
They will be greatly missed by NFB friends. Marty Laster, who served as
president of the Owensboro Chapter died in late January. Marty also served
on the NFBK board. She will be missed by those of us who knew her.
We are happy to report that Mittie Lake of Louisville is home from the
hospital after undergoing a mastectomy. With this surgery Mittie will not
have to go through the rigors of chemotherapy or radiation. She is anxious
for her recovery to be complete and she looks forward to getting out and
seeing her friends. You just cant keep a good woman down. See you soon,
Mittie.
Six of our Federation friends spent a little time on the high seas in
February. Joan and Norman Balot, Denise and Dennis Franklin, Ranelle Mackey
and George Stokes sailed off on Royal Caribbeans Oasis of the Seas for a
seven-day cruise. Oasis is currently the largest cruise ship and the group
enjoyed everything from broadway shows, trivia contests, (perhaps not their
best performance) and endless food choices, to swimming pools, a zip line
and a carousel. They had a wonderful time sightseeing and shopping and
agree that cruising is definitely the way to go.
SOUND OFF
On January 29, 2011, I had the opportunity to witness history being made at
the Daytona Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida. On this historic day the
work that had been put into the Blind Driver Challenge paid off because we
drove! I say we because I have a feeling that no matter if you were there
in person to witness it, or at home listening to the live stream, we all
felt like we were sitting in that drivers seat with Mr. Riccabono. I know
that I did and the excitement and pure exhilaration that went through me
just knowing this was being done and that we had proved to everyone who had
doubted it, that it is possible for blind people to drive. This was truly
an amazing experience and I am so glad that I was there.

MOM, WHAT DOES BLIND MEAN?
By Pauletta Feldman
(Editors Note: The following article appeared in FREEDOM, thirtieth in the
National Federation of the Blinds Kernel Book series. The author is a
Federationist who resides in Louisville.)
There are a few subjects in our society that even the most confident parents
find difficult to discuss with their children. Trying to explain or answer a
question about sex or death to an inquisitive five-year-old, for example,
can leave us stammering. Fortunately, there are many places parents can turn
to for help. But what do you do if you have a blind child? Where do you turn
for guidance when your child asks, Mom, what does blind mean? By the time
her son Jamie asked that question, Pauletta Feldman was preparedshe had
been in the National Federation of the Blinds parents group since Jamie had
been a toddler. Here is what she has to say:
It wasnt until my son, Jamie, was five years old that he finally asked me,
Mom, what does blind mean?
Wed used the word blind in conversation, and hed certainly heard it from
other people. But we hadnt really discussed blindness or its implications
with Jamie. Maybe we were just chicken and putting off the inevitable.
However, we had decided that we would handle discussions of blindness with
Jamie as we had handled discussions of sex with our older children: when
they started asking questions, we felt they were ready to be told the facts.
So that day at naptime when Jamie asked about blindness, I sucked in a big
breath and summoned my courage. Blind means that you cant see with your
eyes, I said. I can see things with my eyes. I can see the trees and the
birds and all of the other things I tell you about. But you see things in a
different way than with your eyes. You use your smart fingers and your smart
ears. He was quite satisfied with that answer and didnt pursue the subject
further that day. However in the days to come, he would ask questions again.
The kind of questions he asked led me to believe that, in his mind, he
wasnt the one that was different. I was! In a way, it was like his first
notion of differences among people was of how they were different from him,
rather than how he was different from them. I liked thatI liked how
self-confident and self-loving he was.
For a while, Jamie seemed to think that everybody we knew was blind and that
there were just a few people who could see. He began asking about person
after person in our family and among our friends to sort out who was blind
and who was not. Gradually he came to realize that he knew more people who
could see than who could not. Im so thankful that we knew other blind
children and adults so that as this realization dawned on him, he did not
feel isolated or alone. The blind people that we knew were really neat
people. They were friends and fun to be with, just like our other friends.
They were people that Jamie really liked, and he could feel good about
having something in common with them.
Jamie began school and loved learning to read Braille. He became very
interested in how sighted people read. Then he began asking of everyone we
knew whether they read with their fingers or with their eyes.
During the past two years since facing that first question, there have been
many incidents that have brought both hidden tears and silent laughter as we
have gone through Jamies formation of opinions about blindness. There was
the day that he came home from school very indignant because a teacher had
mentioned that he couldnt see. He said, I told her that I can too see! I
can see the light! Another day, as he and his brother sat at the kitchen
table doing homework, he asked accusingly, Is Don doing his homework with
his eyes? And he laid his face on his Brailled worksheet and said, Then
Im doing my homework with my eyes too! He decided that someday he was
going to go to school with his brother and then he would be able to read
print because they didnt teach Braille there.
As Jamie has gotten older, some of his responses to his blindness have begun
to be tinged with sadness. One day we read a little book called Corky the
Blind Seal, about a seal in a zoo who lost his sight. The next day as he
got off the school bus, he said, I want to be a bus driver when I grow up!
My heart ached, and I just said, I bet driving a school bus is fun, too.
But when we got in the house, he confessed. I know I cant be a bus driver.
Blind people cant drive, and Im blind. Im glad Im blind, Mom. I just
wish I could be blind like Corky the seal was blind, because he got to see
first. He asked if it was nice to be able to see, and I said that it was.
We talked about how he could see what I see using his other senses, like
when we went to the ocean he could feel the water, taste its saltiness, hear
its waves, and smell it, too. He liked knowing that there were things that
even people who were sighted actually couldnt see, like the windthat we
had to hear it and feel it to know it was there just like he did.
Ive always wanted Jamie to feel good about himself. I havent wanted him to
think that there is anything wrong with the way he is. I havent been able
to bring myself to tell Jamie that, according to some people, there is
something wrong with being blind. Maybe Ill regret this someday, but I
figure in time hell learn. I hope he will come to me with his questions
then and that Ill be able to answer them. To me, blindness is a difference,
a source of sadness sometimes and inconvenience at others, but theres
nothing wrong with it.
Life is a journey of self-discovery. I want Jamies journey to bring
self-love with the discovery of his many potentials and capabilities as well
as his personal limitations. We all have to face certain limitations. Its
how we cope with them that really matters. So far, Jamie has always managed
to find a silver lining for every one of his clouds, to compensate for each
limitation with a special strength. Why just last week he said, Mom, arent
you glad Im blind and have such smart fingers and can read Braille? You
cant read Braille with your fingers! You have to use your eyes.
KENTUCKY ROUNDUP
NFB of Lexington continues in its usual forward motion! The September
Walk-a-Thon occurred in 2010 and displayed its greatest participation from
the chapter and the community yet. The chapter expects the annual event to
become a fantastic fundraiser and awareness tool. The chapter had a unique
opportunity to take advantage of a newly founded Lexington-Fayette County
Public Library event in October that is also expected to become an annual
affair.
Local Fayette County State and local representatives set up in the Library
on October 19, 2010 to meet their public and discuss a number of issues
important to the community in general. Pamela and a good number of the NFB
Chapter members attended the event and had opportunity to share with the
Director of the Library our concerns regarding inaccessibility to the blind
of Fayette County to library services and provided information about the
solutions to bridge the gap. Of course, Pamela also made the best of the
Meet the Blind event and discussed the importance of and funding
inadequacies of the KY NFB-NEWSLINE® newspaper reading service with State
Senators and Representatives present. The event was well attended and well
worth the while.
NFB of Lexington had the distinct pleasure of having Mr. George Stokes,
Envision America Representative, visit the monthly chapter meeting in
November and provide his excellent demonstration of the Summit and
ScriptTalk, bar code reading devices that open the door to accessible
information and independence for the blind and visually impaired regarding
home supplies and medications. George provided lots of information
regarding other print access devices that help all of us to more freely
negotiate the world of print. The chapter also joined with Independence
Place, Inc. Staff and Consumers to celebrate Christmas and the holiday
season in December despite the horrible winter weather.
2011 started with a bang and hasnt let up! Pamela has taken a new approach
to monthly chapter meetings by including FOOD during the meetings which has
brought fun and excitement to the meetings. Lexington has grown in
membership in January and was found enjoying great pleasure at the February
meeting from the new members chefs delight fried chicken and mashed
potatoes. We are looking for still more membership growth and lots of
delicious dishes throughout the year!
Pamela and John had the distinct opportunity to join President Cathy Jackson
in Daytona Beach at the International Speedway to witness HISTORY in the
making as Mark Riccabono drove the 2011 Ford Escape for the Rolex Blind
Driver Challenge! Together with approximately 400 NFB members from across
the nation, the Kentucky group cheered Mark onward to an enormous step into
the future for the blind and visually impaired! On the heels of this
exhilarating experience, the group took the necessary issues to Capitol Hill
in attempt to help U.S. Representatives understand the importance of taking
strong positions on behalf of the blind and visually impaired, and in some
cases, through items that bring access and independence which have been LAW
for 20 years or longer! Our blind and visually impaired children need to be
held to the highest standards of excellence in their education, all
products, goods and services manufactured, bought and sold need to be
accessible to and usable by the blind and visually impaired of America
especially, and further demonstrate our skills and abilities through
employment that will be enhanced through the Americans with Disabilities
Business Opportunity Act.
We are privileged to represent the Nations blind and appreciate the
opportunity to join in changing what it means to be blind!
For more information regarding NFB of Lexington, call Pamela Roark-Glisson,
President, at (859) 948-3663 or e-mail her at Pam.glisson at insightbb.com.
The Murray Chapter has been busy as bees. The chapter celebrated its annual
dinner in September and elected officers. The members traveled to
Louisville for the State Convention.
The month of December was a busy time as the chapter enjoyed Christmas
dinner and a gift exchange. The meal was sponsored and coordinated by
Rickey Yates, nephew of member Sue Rudd. Members and friends enjoyed
watching President Danny Perry work his way through multiple boxes to
discover his Christmas gift. Danny and Anetta Perry, along with Mike and
Ashley Dixon rode in the Murray Christmas parade in a vehicle donated by the
local business The Basket Case. The vehicle was decorated with a banner
donated by K-Square Designs, LLC, with the Whozit on it. The vehicle was
also decorated in green garland which had sunglasses and candy canes
adorning it. Members passed out candy canes to the audience as the parade
went down the street. The chapter utilized this as an awareness event for
the community.
In January Mike, Jenny and Ashley Dixon took part in the Martin Luther King
volunteer day as they washed windows, cleaned the yard and moved some items
for a lady in the community. This was also an awareness project.
The chapter is having an auction in April to raise funds for the National
Convention trip in July. In May the chapter will be participating in the
city-wide yard sale with a mini carnival including a duck pond, sucker tree,
corn hole toss and bake sale. The chapter is also very thankful for an
organization called The Dixie Outlaws. This group will be putting on a lawn
mower derby with the funds being donated to our chapter to help with
convention expenses. Eight chapter members are making plans to attend the
convention this year. The group would also like to mention that Jennifer
Hall is greatly missed, however, we understand she is getting a great
education and wish her well while in Louisville. Stay tuned for more
happenings from the Murray Chapter.
Things are sure happening here in Louisville! We just wrapped up our 2011
Chili Supper and Auction, and even though our numbers were down we had a
great event. Now were turning our sights to our April Luncheon which will
be held on Saturday April 23, 2011. Were spicing it up by having the
luncheon at Tumbleweed on the river and bringing in Mr. Ron Gardner. Mr.
Gardner is the Affiliate President of Utah and a member of the National
Affiliate Action team. Here in Louisville, we feel very fortunate to have
the funds to bring in a well known, well respected Federationist. Mr.
Gardner is going to assist me in motivating our chapter members, and we have
a few other surprises up our sleeves!
Thinking Out of the Box is what we are doing in Louisville this year. Our
board decided to send a deligate to the 2011 National convention in Orlando.
Sarah Williams who is a board member was the chosen one. This is a great
opportunity for Sarah and we know shell bring back knowledge and
enthusiasm. We continue to add names to our Great Convention Giveaway
drawing. Last summer the Greater Louisville board decided to entice people.
For every NFBGL meeting or event you attend your name goes in a drawing for
an all-expense paid trip to the 2011 NFB of Kentucky State Convention in
Frankfort. Our box runneth over with names; I need to get a bigger box!
The winner will be drawn at our April Luncheon.
We have some exciting meetings and activities planned for this summer. We
hope you can join us. Our monthly meetings are held on the third Saturday
of the month at the Louisville Free Public Library, 301 York Street, from
2pm till 3:30pm. You can always call our Talking Bulletin Board at,
502-495-7130 for all the up to date news. You can also find us on Twitter
at, NFBGL.

On December 18, 2010, the NFB of Ashland celebrated Christmas with a potluck
lunch at the home of Lora Felty. Michael and Kennetta Freholm provided a
scrumptious smoked turkey and other chapter members provided yummy side
dishes and dessert. Following lunch, members took part in the annual
ornament exchange. An extra special surprise for the day came when Sandy
and Christopher Adams stopped by for a bit. Sandy is a charter member of
the NFB of Ashland and Christopher, her son, is legally blind. Christopher
has suffered a year-long bout with leukemia and has undergone a bone marrow
transplant. He is doing well; his hair is coming back in and it was
wonderful to see him. We are all thankful that he is doing so well.
Plans were made to celebrate Louis Brailles birthday in January with a
presentation at the Flatwoods Public Library in Greenup County. However,
due to the crazy weather in January, the event was postponed until February.
So, on Thursday, February 10, Michael Freholm and Lora Felty, assisted by
Michaels daughter, Wesley, spoke with families at the Flatwoods library,
sharing with them information about the NFB, Braille and how blind people do
normal everyday things. A Braille storybook was read aloud, Braille
alphabet cards were passed out and names were written in Braille. There
were approximately 30 individuals in attendance and the group was interested
and attentive. It always feels good to have a successful event.
