> Ok folks,
>  
> Here is a chance for all of us to connect, to share, and care. Join us tonight and tomorrow night for 2 power-packed Mountain Time at 5 NFBCO zoom sessions. Tonight, Eating During Pandemic. We will discuss everything from how to get groceries to how to keep our over snacking In check. Feel free to bring your favorite healthy snack. 
> Tomorrow night, What is Normal? What is Independence? Bring your thoughts and viewpoints. We encourage you to read the 1992 banquet address, The Nature of Independence by Dr. Kenneth Jernigan. The address instantly became a classic piece of NFB philosophy. 
>  
> In a recent email, Curtis Chong said,
> "In the context of the word, "normal," the seniors yesterday got to talking about what "normal" meant to them. Of course, from my perspective, normality and independence are often intertwined.
> 
> Kenneth Jernigan's Nature of Independence speech is a clear statement about what independence means in the National Federation of the Blind. Yet, despite this wonderful oration, there are still folks out there who continue to accuse the Federation of being "too rigid."
>  
> This will be an excellent topic for Friday."
>  
> Dear friends, these Mountain Time at 5 sessions as well as networking and training calls provided by other affiliates offer us an opportunity. Let's share info about them on social media. Share these notices with your email contacts. This is a time to share the spirit, energy, and love of our Federation family far and wide. Share with seniors groups, agencies, and parents of blind children. We thank you. If you have questions or to suggest topics please be in touch with us.
